The opening of the mouth was an ancient Egyptian funeral ritual of purification. This bold and uncompromising album from Australia's premier new music ensemble attempts nothing less than the resurrection and cleansing of the language of art itself, in the face of the many atrocities of the modern age. Untamed sounds take the listener on a journey into the rediscovery of memory, as ancient Japanese Koto, Norwegian folk fiddle and classical strings and winds confront live electronics and the human voice.
