Die Wilde Jagd & Metropole Orkest
Lux Tenera - A Rite To Joy
Boomkat Product Review:
The furtive drama and cinematic pomp is high on Die Wilde Jagd’s maiden voyage with historic, leading Dutch performers of film music Metropole Orkest, plus brass specialist, english composer Simon Dobson
In the 10-part ‘Lux Tenera - A Rite to Joy’, the multifaceted collaboration makes a sweeping, coherent statement taking in aspects of atmospheric sound design, portentous symphonic strings, expansive prog doom themes, folk-rock, orchestral spy funk, and stately grandeur. The well-plotted results make for an epic hour of music seeking a film to score, drawing upon the combined catalogue of the respective authors for a widescreen sound that is nonetheless prone to moments of disarming, discreet intimacy.
"Die Wilde Jagd collaborates with Grammy Award-winning Metropole Orkest, conducted by Simon Dobson, for majestic new album "Lux Tenera - A Rite To Joy," commissioned by Roadburn Festival. In an extraordinary convergence of sonic innovation and orchestral mastery, Sebastian Lee Philipp, the visionary behind Die Wilde Jagd, is set to unveil his most ambitious project to date: Lux Tenera - A Rite to Joy.
Commissioned by Roadburn Festival for its 2024 edition, this work emerges from a rare collaboration with the three-time Grammy Award-winning Metropole Orkest. Lux Tenera invites listeners into a meditative exploration of life, joy, and the beauty of existence. The composition premiered on April 21, 2024, in Tilburg, Netherlands, following an intense three-day rehearsal and recording period at Metropole Orkest studio in Hilversum. This performance now captured in the album also marks a unique collaboration with British arranger and conductor Simon Dobson, whose sensitive transcription and arrangement of Philipp's music for orchestra elevates the work to an auditory spectacle.
Lux Tenera - translated from Latin as "tender light" - is an odyssey of sound and thought. Philipp's poetic lyrics - delivered in both English and German - weave a tapestry of vivid imagery and allusion, guiding the listener through a world where life, memory, and transcendence coalesce. This intellectual and emotional alchemy is heightened by the orchestral elements at play: a 50-piece ensemble, the primal resonance of two large-scale Taiko drums, and the ancient, raw timbre of the Carnyx, performed by Patrick Kenny.
The result is a sonic structure that marries the primal with the avant-garde, the physical with the metaphysical. At its heart, Lux Tenera presents a bold reimagining of Die Wilde Jagd's distinctive sound. Known for hypnotic, slow-building compositions that evoke a sense of ritual and timelessness, Philipp, in this latest work, is granted new sonic breadth by the orchestral textures of the Metropole Orkest. The symphonic scope enhances and magnifies his compositions, creating what can only be described as a sonic architecture that is both monumental and intimate, where each crescendo, each subtle melodic turn, guided by Simon Dobson's conducting skills, speaks to Philipp's understanding of music as an emotional language."
