'enchanting, compelling, varied and rich in contrast'
In 2021, the Dutch press described the music of the music theater production Grenspaal 369 in these terms. “The music of composer Douwe Eisenga, full of melancholy winds and fierce percussion, energetically propels the performance”.
During the second lockdown, Douwe rewrote the music for the new album The Border. The ten instrumental songs, detached from the original performance, together form a painting of sound, enchanting and compelling, varied and rich in contrast.
In Douwe's own words:
During the second lockdown I once again had time to work on the kind of music that has been my ideal since childhood; music with a combination of acoustic instruments and electronic sounds. Around the saxophone parts, beautifully played by Erik-Jan de With, I spent months building a kind of paintings of sound. The music mixes the saxophones with piano, lots of percussion and brass-like sounds and adds pure electronic soundscapes.
Of course, there are still connections between The Border's music and the original theatrical performance. Yet, at the same time, The Border stands fully on its own. If I were to tell you how each part encapsulates the original story, I would only set new borders for your imagination when listening to this album.
