Mizu's Forest Scenes is an experimental project at it's core - an exploration of the vast possibilities of the cello (as a melodic instrument, as a seed for digital manipulation, as a percussive and resonant body) within a forest of electronically synthesized sounds, found samples, and vocals. Conceived and composed primarily over the course of two inspired weeks in Summer 2022 during a visit to São Paulo, Brazil (following the completion of Mizu's debut Distant Intervals), Forest Scenes is a journey within oneself as much as a journey into the unknowns of various woodlands and uncharted, yet-to-be-explored territories. The title, while referencing Robert Schumann's hidden gem of a piano work Waldszenen, makes no overt musical odes to it's Romantic predecessor; rather, it creates an entirely new narrative and language of it's own. Cinematic in composition and production, the album relishes in darkness and mystery as much as the excitements and joys of pure exploration.1. Enter2. Pump3. Rinse4. Pavane5. Flutter6.
