Light Stories

"A digital only album – cellist Matthew Barley tells stories from his life through music and projected imagery, narrating his search for meaning and healing. Featuring works by Giovanni Sollima and JS Bach with new music by Barley and specially created visuals by Yeast Culture.
“Fiercely committed, immaculately delivered... There’s plenty here to captivate…Barley is bright and energetic amid the frenetic electronic activity…It makes for an eclectic collection of pieces, but what brings them together is Barley’s rich, supple playing, which he varies dramatically in tone and style as he allies himself with each composer’s music across the disc’s carefully considered emotional journey. Recorded sound is so rich and detailed that it’s something of a sonic marvel in itself” – The Strad"
