Is That You?

As its 35th installment, Crónica is pleased to add to its well curated catalogue TU M’s Is That You?

Is That You? invites you to become a solo protagonist in an imaginary soundtrack. While embracing you in an ocean of orchestral delight, the delicate arrangements and the overall amplitude of the piece’s resonance carry you across a 23 minute drama full of beauty and intrigue.

Rossano Polidoro and Emiliano Romanelli’s improvised recordings stem from carefully written evocations of orchestral brass and wood colors which are later reprocessed live. TU M’s performance is yet another level of evocation, building concurrent arrays of sound flux full of instrumental warmth and vivid organics.

TU M’ are meager in words about their music, but this sparseness finds a balance in the expressivity of their music.
