Dave Mohan’s new release is a love song that takes as its inspiration Bach’s beautifully romantic Arioso. The opening piano notes will immediately strike a note of resonance and familiarity with the listener. But the vocal performance, an evocative and wonderfully measured harmony that’s expertly delivered by Carolina de la Muela starts to enter and steal the show. Beginning with a more up tempo and invigorating melody, the song starts to shift around the halfway mark into something much more morose and melancholic. It turns into an aching ballad that poignantly and expressively regales a tale of love through the pianos powerful notes.
Loving and losing all brought to life.
