A new series of miniatures for violin written by van Haegenborgh especially for the album seems to look back on the process of making the music, speaking from the middle, like a mnemonic chorus of one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRecorded over two days in April 2025 at Luca School of Arts, Ghent, Affordances offers a view into Musarc’s quietly radical, and maybe unrecordable, approach to what a choir can do and the unique space it can creates for artists, musicians and singers to develop new ideas.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Assai Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56174390018431,"sku":"SN15","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1565\/5653\/files\/046db622-585b-41d2-87b6-c49c4de0eebf.jpg?v=1759763588","url":"https:\/\/assai.co.uk\/products\/musarc-and-heleen-van-haegenborgh-affordances-vinyl-lp-due-out-31-10-25","provider":"Assai Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
