OUT NOW Marta Sanchez - For the Space You Left (OOYH 043)

Marta Sanchez’s debut solo prepared piano album, For The Space You Left (OOYH 043), is OUT TODAY! You can listen anywhere you like to listen, and LPs and CDs are in stock and shipping. Link to all in our bio. The very first time Marta posted a prepared piano clip on Instagram we told her we’d love to work on an album if she ever recorded one, and the result is better than we could have possibly expected. We are thrilled to be helping get this music out in the world. Some thank yous from Marta, and if you live in Baltimore or DC, so see this live (and pick up a record!) this weekend, details below!

Thanks to Adam Muñoz for the beautiful recording, Dave Darlington for the always amazing mixes. TJ Huff for the great cover design, Ogata for the cover picture, and Mark Weiss for the support.

She’ll be playing this music this weekend: Saturday the 18th in Baltimore and An Die Musik and Sunday the 19th in DC at Takoma Station Tavern.

Early press for For The Space You Left:

**** “Her playing is dazzlingly articulate, rife with both multi-note phrases and moments of drawn out, bodily yearning. On For the Space You Left, Sanchez makes music you can feel.” —AllMusic

“These are gripping, life-affirming excursions that should please any fan of top-flight piano science, prepared or not.” —Vinyl District

Included as one of This Week’s Best on Qobuz, with a forthcoming Editor’s Pick.
