The album bridges the worlds of contemporary poetry, spoken word, and experimental sound art, transforming verse into a three-dimensional sonic architecture.  Schwabsky's poems, replete with subtle linguistic turns, philosophical inquiry, and striking visual imagery are delivered with a measured, deliberate clarity. Rather than functioning as mere background accompaniment, Nowottny's intricate musical arrangements actively engage with the texts. Utilizing piano, electronic keyboard and processed electronics, Nowottny crafts evocative atmospheres that respond directly to the cadence and emotional contours of Schwabsky's poetry. The result is an ethereal dialog between word and sound where meaning lingers in the spaces between lines. Barry Schwabsky is an internationally acclaimed poet, art critic, and essayist. Best known as the longtime art critic for The Nation and a frequent contributor to Artforum, he has authored numerous books of art criticism and multiple collections of poetry. His literary work is celebrated for its intellectual rigor, lyrical economy, and sharp visual awareness. Marianne Nowottny is a visionary New York avant-garde composer, singer-songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist. Emerging from the underground art scene, she has built a cult following through a prolific, genre-defying discography spanning solo piano, electronic soundscapes, and experimental song cycles. A Voice Hears You From Mysterious Places stands as a document of interdisciplinary art, an essential listening experience for devotees of avant-garde poetry, modern composition, and underground spoken-word performance.\u003c\/p\u003e    \u003ch2\u003eTrack Listing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e        \u003cli\u003eA Calm Death\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eBiopic (For Artie Gold or Syd Barrett\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eThe Sleep Of Pictures\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eMiranda\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eHow to Ring Bells With a Hammer\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eInasmuch\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eSphere, Cone, Cylinder\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eDeep Instructions\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eAnd One Will Be Sent To you As Well\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003ePower of Speech (After Paul Éluard)\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFalse Positives\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eFalling Asleep at the Movies\u003c\/li\u003e                  \u003cli\u003eImmigrant\u003c\/li\u003e          \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch2\u003eAdditional Details\u003c\/h2\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Abaton Book Company\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ambient\/Experimental\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRun Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 mins\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0       \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11\/06\/26\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 675130545921\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"HOSTILECI","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50517942075641,"sku":"ABC-037","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0815\/4889\/files\/ABC-037.jpg?v=1790085263","url":"https:\/\/mvdshop.com\/products\/barry-schwabsky-marianne-nowottny-a-voice-hears-you-from-mysterious-places-cd","provider":"MVD Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
