​
"Cascade of Shimmering Gates" is a deeply transporting, intricately layered 64 minute musical narrative, originally scored for an art installation. An elaborate collaboration, years in the making, between pianist/composer Nicholas Paul Milosevich (Tower of Power) and composer/producer Matthew Liam Nicholson; sublime piano improvisation woven through haunting, evolving multidimensional soundscapes, refined like wine over natural time.
Designed to be listened to in a single continuous session, but also provided in all its 39 parts - "Cascade.." is ideal for rest, yoga, meditation, prayer, exercise, walking, psychedelics, and all other forms of contemplative deep listening.
​
Following upon 2021's critically acclaimed "Nine Movements" with Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, "Cascade Of Shimmering Gates" showcases Nicholson's intricate, artful and deeply feeling approach to score production, arranging and weaving through Milosevich’s masterful piano figures, producing a mystifying, never-the-same-twice, sacramental musical realm. An outstanding musical talisman that unfurls ever more subtle dimensions.
