about

"Inhale" is the first single from Caroline Shaw's How to fold the wind, recorded by Ars Nova Copenhagen and conducted by Paul Hillier. The complete recording will be released on CD in late 2024 as part of a split album with Michael Gordon's A Western, recorded by Theatre of Voices and also conducted by Paul Hillier.

Co-commissioned in 2019 by Chamber Choir Ireland and Kilkenny Arts Festival (with funding from the Arts Council/an Chomhairle Ealaíon) together with Carnegie Hall (New York), Ars Nova (Copenhagen) and Bella Voce (Chicago), How to Fold the Wind is inspired by origami, using speech, inhaled notes, wordless melodies and innovative vocal effects to fold individual voices together into a complex whole.

lyrics

suddenly we cannot see
suddenly it seems to become
all we could see
when all would be
come love come
one two three four five six seven eight
in on and down on
find
on and on and
