Arnalds, Ólafur & Talos: A Dawning (CD)

When we feel as though we might drown under the waves of our grief, there is music. On A Dawning, the astounding album from Icelandic composer Ólafur Arnalds and the late Irish artist Eoin French – known to many as Talos – music becomes a raft to keep us afloat in those dark, seemingly fathomless waters, guiding us towards a glimmer of light on the horizon.

For both artists, this record serves as the apotheosis of their creative talents, two brilliant minds revelling in their shared love of music.
