Without Wind/Without Air

Roger Eno’s third solo album for Deutsche Grammophon is a poetic meditation on the fragility of life, memory, and nature. Spanning 12 tracks for piano and strings—including “There Was a Ship,” a haunting folk-tinged ballad of reunion, and “The Moon and the Sea,” an elegiac tale of unrequited love—this release blends delicate solo piano with rich orchestral textures. Echoes of the natural world surface in the title track and “The Final Year of Blossom,” invoking environmental fragility with crystalline clarity. Featuring guest vocals by Grace Davidson, Cecily and Lotti Eno, plus arrangements for Scoring Berlin strings and synths, this album is a quietly urgent reflection on transience and care
