“Seeing is Forgetting combines analog synths (Elori Saxl) with baritone saxophone + bass clarinet (Henry Solomon). Drawing equal parts from American jazz abstraction, New York classical minimalism, and contemporary pop’s sense of harmony, form, and hooks, the album is an exploration in presence, physicality, intuition, and vulnerability.” Elori Saxl is an American experimental electronic composer. Her music has received critical acclaim for its elegant and innovative combination of digitally-processed field recordings with analog synthesizers and orchestral instruments from The Washington Post, The Guardian, Pitchfork, The New Yorker, The Quietus, WNYC New Sounds, BBC Radio, Bandcamp Daily and more. Saxl has composed music for classical ensembles, PBS, The National Film Board of Canada, The Guggenheim, Burton, Patagonia, Google, Poler, Dove, the New Yorker, This American Life, Public Radio International, SFMOMA, and more.
