A "story of 'fixed' and 'open' things" unfolds in Liza Lim's work 'Tongue of the Invisible' on this new CD on Wergo's<br />
edition musikFabrik. Of Chinese descent, the Australia-born composer was inspired by the lyric poetry of the Sufi Persian<br />
poet Hafiz.<br />
"An ecstatic vertigo: There still isn't enough Lim on disc for my liking, but this release of the 55-minute song cycle Tongue<br />
of the Invisible will fill the gap for a while...The piece was written for Musikfabrik, and they bring a headily sensual quality<br />
to their playing. The instrumental introduction, a sequence of increasingly elaborate solo curlicues over an increasingly<br />
massive drone, is one of the most absorbing passages I can recall in Lim's output. If you're looking for an introduction to<br />
Lim's music - and if you haven't already had one you should be - then this may be what you need."<br />
