Album Stream: Tori Amos Embraces The Classics On ‘Night Hunters’
Tori AmosThe eight time Grammy nominee Tori Amos returns with a new label, a new challenge, and a new album of haunting piano ballads fans have come to adore. Tori joins with the classical label Deutsche Grammophon to share her latest opus Night of Hunters, a journey through one woman’s heartbreak expressed through narrative lyrics and the use of a ‘song cycle,’ a composition tactic lifted from the 19th century (and since evolved into what we know as “concept albums”) that carries themes across different movements. Yes, it is a dense project – but the music within Hunters survives potential conceptual drudgery with its sheer beauty, resulting in Tori’s most emotive and touching work to date.
