Solos

A record that is pretty but aimless, Solos is nice accompaniment for looking out an airplane window. Dessner's string arrangements are the most interesting works here. But maybe that's just because I prefer the propulsive energy bowed or plucked instruments give to minimalist compositions. Nothing we haven't heard before (and better) from Glass, Adams, or even Blackshaw and Sufjan. Still, a pleasant enough diversion.
