Head as Form'd in the Crier's Choir

If there was ever any acquiescence to the particularities of one or another mode of creation on the part of Davachi, The Head as Form'd in the Crier's Choir is a sign that that is now over, and that she's freed herself to fully embrace the impulses that have made her work so rewarding all along.

Davachi’s work can be gently provocative but it’s never anything less than stimulating. [Oct 2024, p.91]

Listening to Sarah Davachi's newest album in the scorching heat wave outdoors, the world slows to an ominous crawl. As the sombre organ notes take hold, a bird with a worm wiggling in its beak becomes a dark omen. Branches move ominously with the slight breeze, filtering brief flashes of sunlight. Every little detail gathers unbearable weight, falling deeper into a hypnotic abyss. [Oct 2024, p.50]

It's a career-defining work that lives, shapeshifts, and, crucially, grieves.
