5.0 out of 5 stars Just Listen, May 20, 2008
This review is from: Last Days (Audio CD)
THE LAST DAYS

On the last day

there'll be music,

or the memory of music,

the remnant of ourselves.

The last days will be spent walking

in solitude and silence through a neglected garden

where the flowers bloom profusely

without care.

On the last day there'll be music,

motes of melody afloat in the air

until the Earth's memory of us

fades.

When the last days have lasted

long enough,

only the absence of our noises

which we called music

will last.

4.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, December 26, 1999
By 
Benjamin (antwerp, belgium) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Last Days (Audio CD)
Bryars never seizes to amaze me: everything he thouches seems to turn into gold. Although this doesn't strike me as his 'best' work, it still contains ample beauty to shut me up, and force me to listen. The melodic lines evolve quite fast compared to "After The Requiem", "Jesus' Blood" or "Cadman Requiem"; although the album contains 72 minutes of violin-music, it's never boring.
