Patina

Renowned British composer, producer and cellist Peter Gregson returns with original music on his fifth studio album ‘Patina’, a beautiful word to refer the appearance of something grown beautiful especially with age or use.

Gregson has long been fascinated with the impact of finitude and absence on life, and with trying to translate these powerful non-things into his music. Now, Gregson brings his most expansive and expressive work to date, featuring an astonishing array of analogue electronics instruments, a string ensemble and his unique solo cello. Patina challenges Gregson himself and the listener with this question: what happens when you remove a melody?
