Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of Poul Ruders' "The Thirteenth Child," a captivating exploration of traditional folk music released on June 21, 2019, under Bridge Records. This album is a testament to Ruders' mastery, offering a rich, hour-and-seventeen-minute journey through a narrative-driven musical landscape.
Comprising two acts, the album unfolds like a story, with each track playing a pivotal role. From the haunting melodies of "The Softest Spoken" to the dramatic intensity of "The Trembling of the Earth," Ruders weaves a tapestry of sound that is both intricate and engaging. The interludes serve as breathable pauses, allowing the listener to absorb the depth of each segment before moving forward.
Ruders' compositional prowess shines through in tracks like "Hjarne's Funeral" and "Frederic's Return," where traditional folk elements are seamlessly blended with orchestral depth. The album's second act introduces a sense of resolution and healing, culminating in the hopeful "Together We Will Heal."
"The Thirteenth Child" is not just an album; it's an experience. Poul Ruders invites you to lose yourself in the storytelling, the melodies, and the rich tapestry of sound that defines this remarkable work. Whether you're a seasoned fan of traditional folk or a newcomer looking to explore the genre, this album promises a rewarding listen.
