The lowdown
“Thompson’s (music is)...something for which there’s no word other than ‘beautiful’” — Mark Bosch, Cut Common
Sydney-based composer and pianist Sarah Elise Thompson will be performing in her debut Australian shows in celebration of her new EP eternal light. Sarah will be performing an intimate evening performance of her music at Church Street Studios, and will by joined by the Nomad String Quartet.
The EP, out on Friday 16 October, features 5 inspiring, uplifting works for piano and string quartet, including singles ‘wings’ and ‘saw you in a dream’.
"eternal light for me represents the idea that those we love and the memories of them never truly leave us. Their light continues to remain with us forever and their presence continues on even once they have departed. This EP is an intimate, personal journey of my own grief, written in the wake of the death of my close friends. The 5 pieces on the record are written as of signs of hope, light and beauty, with soaring melodies and warm strings. The music is a source of comfort, healing and strength to rise from the ashes. There is a light that never goes out..." - Sarah Elise Thompson Sarah's compositions – often reflective and meditative – have a flowing quality that transports listeners into a peaceful, hypnotic state, exploring our deepest emotions through grief and joy and everything in between.
Don't miss this rare opportunity to hear Sarah for the first time live!
