Ordo Ritualis: White Edition
About the album
In my life, there are rituals I read about in books, learned from someone, and created on my own. But there are also rituals in sound, sonic worlds that tell a story—about our time, about loss, about encounters with the unknown. This album, Ordo Ritualis, is a small collection of these rituals, created by incredible composers: Missy Mazzoli, Bryce Dessner, Martijn Padding, Fjóla Evans, Kaveh Vares, and Heather Pinkham.

"Whenever cellist and vocalist Maya Fridman releases a new album, I celebrate. [...] Maya's musicianship is superb, both as a cellist and as a vocalist. But it is probably her sensibilities about outstanding music that needs to be performed and heard that most attracts me."
Rushton Paul, Positive Feedback
"Using a panoply of cello techniques (with plenty of overdubs), vocalizing, pizzicato, mutes, harmonics and plain old gorgeous cantilena playing, Fridman’s virtuosity and creativity never ceases to amaze. [...] The TRPTK recording maintains the impossibly high standards Brendon Heinst brings to all his releases."
Anthony Kershaw, Audiophilia
