Four innovative acoustic works played by the excellent Canadian ensemble Arraymusic.Another excellent compilation of acoustic works by Arraymusic.Big Pictures is a theatrical work by composer Michael J. Baker, painter Dan Solomon and choreographer Bill James.Memory Forms is a succession of orchestral images – chords, fragments of melody, odd scales, occasional solo lines – which appear, recede and reappear in continuously changing forms. Just as memory gives shape to life, so it forms, and informs, the experience of music.This double CD contains pieces chosen by the prestigious past directors of the Array Ensemble.In Paradisum, has a darker opening and is rough like a pre-Columbian dance, gliding soon into the serious game of transformations that eventually sidesteps the auditioning mind and imprints itself on the body.Henry Kucharzyk is a composer too eclectic to be pigeon-holed. He is one of Canadian music's explorers. - William Littler, Toronto Star
