The album brings together works by composer and conductor Willian Lentz, written and recorded between 2021 and 2024. multitudinous seas was chosen as the album’s title because it marks the starting point of a compositional path that unfolds throughout the subsequent pieces. It already introduces procedures that run throughout the album: metric and rhythmic volatility, the expansion of instrumental sonority through electronics, and a formal trajectory shaped by the potentialities of the musical material itself.
Recorded in collaboration with Anderson Zabrocki, this EP features the Nocturnes from Op. 37 by Antoine de Lhoyer (1768–1852), published between 1821 and 1829 under the title Six Duos Nocturnes d’une exécution facile, Op. 37. These duos reveal distinctive characteristics and sonorities, drawing attention to a composer who is now relatively little known from the so-called Golden Age of the guitar, a period in which figures such as Fernando Sor, Mauro Giuliani, and Matteo Carcassi remain among the most widely remembered.
