Less a fantasia, more a farewell. This one strikes me more mournful, less hopeful and explorative than its predecessors; a poignant ending to a series of wispy poetry spoken in a universal language. Thanks Julien. A total pleasure. jammingdevice
These almost heartbreakingly gentle felted piano compositions have the delicacy and loveliness of slow-falling snow. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 30, 2023
This album doesn't feel as refined or fully realized in comparison to its younger brothers—Marchal will return to many of the same melodies in the sequels as a more mature pianist and composer, but that doesn't change that this is still a beautiful, contemplative album. Each track feels like the answer to a question; an insight, if you will.
INSIGHT X leans particularly hard into classical roots. It's a treat! jammingdevice
