Album Review: Tyondai Braxton: Telekinesis by Tyondai Braxton
Very Good, Based on 1 Critic
Based on rating 3.5
This admirably ambitious, envelope-pushing 87-piece work features electric guitars, orchestra, choir, and electronics and coalesces into various jolts of adrenaline There is something unnerving about digital silence: quieter than any natural environment could be, it becomes more imposing than sound itself. Tyondai Braxton is no stranger to this element in his solo work, but Telekinesis mostly replaces it with the almost imperceptible ambience of the musicians' rest. Telekinesis is the result of a co-commission by London’s Southbank Centre and Musica Nova, Helsinki Festival, with the world premiere taking place all the way back in 2018, at the Queen Elizabeth Hall.
