Sophie Abraham — Werkstattkonzert[17]

THE BEAUTY IN BETWEEN is the second solo album by Dutch-Austrian cellist Sophie Abraham. This is how hard breath, trembling strength, and soft rock sound. THE BEAUTY IN BETWEEN is an ode to the power of in-between spaces, the infinite facets of the androgynous and the undefined. Sophie Abraham's music is simultaneously a musical, personal, and socio-political statement celebrating the beauty of diversity—beyond divisions, borders, and exclusions. As with her first solo album "Brothers" (2021)—nominated for the Amadeus Award and the German Record Critics' Prize 2022—personal experiences form the starting point for the cellist's compositions. With her instrument, she explores uncharted paths along quiet and healing explosions that gently shatter musical categories and stereotypes while expanding musical genres. The result is a compelling plea for the relevance of what lies in between.
