Chilly Gonzales streams second track ahead of forthcoming album, Chambers

25 February 2015, 11:20 | Written by Ben Curtis

Chilly Gonzales has made new track "Sweet Burden" available to stream; ahead of the release of new album Chambers.

The track, a dedication to Gabriel Fauré, is described by Gonzales as:

"My Solo Piano song (and label) Gentle Threat is one of many contradictory titles in my repertoire. Sweet Burden is the album's first bona fide tear jerker. A long, ambiguous melody inspired by French composer Gabriel Faure. The viola solo is slowly joined by the cello, while the violins chime in with a single-note pattern. We all have our burdens to bear, and maybe only music can sweeten them."

The album, the follow up to Solo Piano II, is released on 23 March.

Listen to the beautiful "Sweet Burden" below.
