Info for some kind of peace — piano reworks



10 stunning new interpretations for piano of Ólafur Arnalds' hit album some kind of peace from acoustic solo piano to dreamy electronic sounds.

"I’ve always maintained the notion that a song is never finished. A piece of music can take on any form, evolve and breathe with whomever is playing it. When the idea of a reworks album came up, I thought of it as a chance to get some of my favourite people together on an album and challenge them to experiment, pull apart and rearrange my music. I gave them absolutely no direction. I wanted them to feel free to take the songs anywhere that felt right to them. The only requirement was that it had to be mostly, if not all, piano. The outcome is a beautiful album of expansive diversity. I’m deeply moved by the evident love that all these wonderful musicians put into the music that means so much to me. And once again, this process has proved to me that a recording is just a snapshot of what the song was at that particular time. The heart of a song lives in the performer.” (Ólafur Arnalds)

So the Icelandic artist invited a diverse mix of musical friends and companions from around the world to reinterpret his music. His last album "some kind of peace" - an album on which two Grammy-nominated tracks, "The Bottom Line" (feat. Bonobo) and "Loom" (feat. Josin) can be heard - serves here as the basis for the interpretations of ten artists. Among others, piano arrangements by Hania Rani, Lambert, Dustin O'Halloran, JFDR, Eydís Evensen and others can be found on the new album.
