Invadable Harmony carves out a piercingly delicate yet intoxicating space in modern music, with the piano-led purity and power of A Fragment of My Soul.
Composer Mounia Sebti lends the creativity to this solo-piano performance, an instantly alluring space, within which the organic weight of the keys adds such a refreshing sense of realism and honesty to an already compelling arrangement.
Building up beautifully from intimate and haunting to dramatic and impassioned, its the live aspect of the playing that grips you – the melody is unsettled, sometimes comforting, but for the most part this feels like an outcry on behalf of the soul itself; an artistic manifestation of conflicting emotions and the true vastness of existence.
Simple yet striking, barely scraping past the two-minute mark, A Fragment of My Soul is quite stunning in how it manages to draw you in and hold you captive, changing your mood and your thought process, all within such a short timeframe.
While many solo piano pieces tend to focus either on the heartbreak or the upbeat joy, A Fragment of My Soul appears to quite cleverly represent subtle flickers of both. It’s a composition that takes you by the hand, and walks you through these dark but quiet streets – even welcomes you into a waltz just briefly. And all the while, your mind wanders, the intensity heightens just slightly, and subtlety works its magic in powerful and rather addictive ways.
