Hymnus Addendum by Paper Birds

This EP was originally recorded as separate pieces- audio gifts for family members. However, I decided to share publicly for the holiday season this year. This is certainly different from any other Paper Birds release to date. I feel as if I reached back in time with this album, reconnecting with my musical roots, and the hymns and acoustic sound that I grew up with. This album's sound is focused around classical piano, acoustic instrumentation, and heavily layered ethereal choir arrangements. I wanted to recreate my own stripped-down versions and/or deviations of the original/traditional versions that are commonly heard. I recorded these imagining that I was inside of a dark, empty medieval cathedral somewhere in western Europe, lit only by candlelight, during a foggy and cold winter night.
i hope you enjoy!
