Elliot Murphy, Inferno (2021)

Inferno is my first solo album for cello and is a musical interpretation of the first part of Dante’s Divine ComedyInferno.

[. . .]

“Dante visits twenty-eight distinct locations and I have tried to represent them all through music. Some are thematically linked, some stand alone, some paint a sonic landscape or mood, while others follow the drama of the text. As Dante invites the reader of his text to join him on his pilgrimage so too, I hope, does my music invite the listener on a journey.”    —Elliot Murphy, elliotmurphymusic (September 30, 2021)
