The Story

The darkness beckons. Lose yourself in this dramatic collection of music reflecting on the sounds and feelings one might encounter in the dead of night. Experience what happens when curious innocence happens upon a sinister darkness, feel the sadness and loss of a lonely apparition glimpsed in the night, and follow the music inward on a quiet journey through the twilight space of your own thoughts. Rachel LaFond continues to dive into and embrace the full depth of human experience with her signature passionate approach, showing a mournful, haunting side to her musicality.

The album features five solo piano compositions with diverse moods centered around a haunting theme. Each piece then reappears, lovingly produced and adapted by award-winning composer and engineer Mike Bloemendal. See how the music lifts beyond the solo piano into a richer, more cinematic experience, and feel how the emotional character of each piece changes.
