Balmorhea

Musical Group

Balmorhea is an American instrumental ensemble formed in Austin in 2006, known for blending neoclassical, post‑rock and ambient elements into sparse, cinematic compositions.

Founded by Rob Lowe and Michael Mueller. Frequently uses piano, acoustic guitar, violin, cello and restrained percussion; noted for instrumental, cinematic and neoclassical‑influenced post‑rock pieces.

Three DeBaser reviews praise Balmorhea's instrumental, neoclassical/post‑rock approach. Reviewers highlight piano, strings and sparse percussion, noting strong atmosphere and attention to detail. Constellations, Rivers Arms and Strangers are recurring focal points. Overall reception emphasizes tranquil, cinematic compositions.

For:Listeners of instrumental, neoclassical and post‑rock music; fans of ambient/minimal cinematic compositions.

 Tranquility. This is the key word that came to my mind after listening to the second work by Balmorhea.

 A single note can say so much: it opens the door to a universe; a chord can say so much: it outlines the space, the dimension within which we want to disappear forever, for that forever which is the duration of our beloved CD.

 Music made of details, of hidden sounds that when you discover them, fill you with joy.
