Looking forward and trying to make sense of life,” she says. “Pain is unavoidable, and you’ll have hardship no matter what, but you don’t grow or learn about yourself or the world around you without it. The duality is the growth and coming out the other side. I had the concept from the start.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJasmine Myra’s verdant musical vision and talent for instrumental storytelling came to life over five days, with her long-standing ensemble gathering in one room at \u003cstrong\u003eThe Nave\u003c\/strong\u003e studios in Leeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMyra had crossed paths with \u003cstrong\u003eAncient Infinity Orchestra\u003c\/strong\u003e bandleader \u003cstrong\u003eOzzy Moysey\u003c\/strong\u003e before she moved from Leeds to London, often attending and playing at the same jam sessions. This made him the perfect choice to conduct the 13-piece band, freeing her up to bring maximum tenderness and elegiac tones to the alto sax lines she’d written. Her own playing sits deliberately within each track, never flying above. Instead, it wraps gently around precision melodies she wrote for strings, piano, flute, guitar, vibraphone, and harp which themselves furl and unfurl gorgeously around tenor sax, double bass, drums, and percussion. It’s a huge undertaking, executed with resolute confidence, and melodies that sparkle like sunlight on water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs well as writing all the music, \u003cem\u003eWhere Light Settles\u003c\/em\u003e is also her first self- produced record, with \u003cstrong\u003eGondwana\u003c\/strong\u003e label boss \u003cstrong\u003eMatthew Halsall\u003c\/strong\u003e undertaking Contributing Producer duties. It’s a colourful sound world, shaped in both atmosphere and structure by Myra’s affinity with music for film.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBehind the notes and staves there’s also Myra’s love of nature, specifically regular trips to North Wales, the Lake District, and the South Downs. “I just love those landscapes. It’s the duality: nature can be brutal but beautiful and I love that juxtaposition.” And of course, existing musical influences that range from Fabiano do Nascimento to Arooj Aftab and Alabaster Deplume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“\u003cem\u003eWhere Light Settles\u003c\/em\u003e is a metaphor for hope, and for me, it’s the perfect title for this album, which we recorded together, in person. It communicates the energy and the meaning behind it – and it ties in with the theme of duality.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLast year brought success and promise, including an inspiring two-date trip to China. This summer and autumn, and the months that roll out in the distance, will be all about spreading the word. Those who know already love Jasmine Myra’s music.
