Aisle Arch Attic is the title of pianist and composer Kasper Staub’s solo piano debut album.
The album contains nine short pieces for piano, unfolding in a genreless and beauty-striving universe of sound.
All tracks have come to life as spontaneous compositions in the studio and recorded directly on reel-to-reel tape recorder, which has brought a strong focus and presence to the process of recording.
Kasper Staub's follow-up on the solo album Aisle Arch Attic (2016) is entitled 9 movements. The album contains nine short vignettes for piano, who all come to life in a meditative and genre-defying strive for beauty.
The music explores the presence and movements of the now as well as the form of the stillness with nature and human motion as a core theme.
