November 19 street date. Composer/violinist Jessica Moss is by now a seasoned practitioner of immersive isolation music; across three previously acclaimed solo records of minimal and maximal post-classicism, her acoustic, amplified, and electronically-shifted violin is the raw material for deeply expressive, palpably haunted, wholly committed compositions. But her new album "Phosphenes" inscribes fleeting halos of refracted ghostly light out of a prevailing darkness with especially plangent determination and intensity.

This is the most overtly searching, mournful and inexorable music Moss has made to date. The pieces on "Phosphenes" exquisitely navigate consonance and dissonance, building patiently from single notes to multiple voicings, harmonic stacks and clusters. These compositions channel themselves like slow-moving water in a dark cave.
