about

Inspired by the 1885 novel of the same name by Charles Edward Blessington.

From the oblique rituals hosted by Adeline de Castella, the irreverent ramblings of Mr. Carleton to the gaslighting of Mrs. Seymour by the estate staff, the story involves a series of interconnected events that take place at Alnwick Hall, perhaps not so much a place, but more a nexus of possibilities that transcend and challenge the forces of conformity. All who guest here do so at their own peril - those who leave are never the same again!

In this musical response to the obscure classic, the story continues in modern England at the end of the long hot summer of 1976. The influence of Alnwick and its residents intersect with the familiar and real and a universe of dreams and desires.

Stylistically related to earlier releases such as 'Undine Hermeticus' and also 'Lunora', this album represents a development in the 'Moss-Jazz' mode first posited in the seminal theoretical tome 'They Sold Out in a Ditch' by C. Mallweather and Ellenor Templeton.
