• Track Listing

Tori discovered rock as an adolescent, but she first began as a piano prodigy with a conservatory scholarship. Consider this bold new release her full-circle moment—it’s a 21st-century song cycle drawing on themes by Bach, Schubert, Satie, Granados and Chopin as it takes us on a journey from Ireland’s mythic past to a modern-day love story. Tori’s 12th studio album is her first for Deutsche Grammophon and her first all-acoustic affair; her piano takes center stage, joining flute, oboe, English horn, clarinet, bassoon and contrabassoon. She wrote and produced "Shattering Sea," "Snowblind," "Battle of Trees," "Star Whisperer," "Job’s Coffin," "Your Ghost" and the rest of this immensely impressive new work, available on CD, double-vinyl or a deluxe edition CD/DVD set!
