Swallows Borrow the Ballroom

From Rooms for Unfinished Things

Hear the whole story.

A small house acquires music before it acquires all its walls. Eight instrumental pieces move through toy-piano waltzes, an opinionated chair, rain, a quiet drawer and a kettle in seven. Handmade synthesized voices share the rooms; the last piece returns to the opening melody and leaves the window open.
