Neo-Romance
Néo-Romance marks a departure for STRÉLISKI in several ways, not just in terms of subject matter. Composing and recording in Europe for the first time, she also worked with several new musicians and collaborators - including, for the first time, a string trio; three members from the acclaimed Karski Quartet - and explored her family’s past. The songs were written mainly in Rotterdam, where Stréliski moved to be with her partner. And in doing so, she discovered some surprising – and prescient – facts about her family history, their Polish Jewish origins, and her ancestors’ penchant for art and creativity.
