Birmingham Record Company announce the release of Trace, a new album from composer Maya Verlaak. An experimental composer who consistently challenges conventions, Verlaak finds inspiration for new music in the unique context of each musical situation. The stimulus for each of the six pieces featured on Traceis her own meaningful relationship with each musician. 

Because of this deeply personal approach to the composition process every track on this album was recorded in each musician’s home, giving exclusive access to their personal space. This way of working opens up Verlaak’s compositional practice towards new methods, creative solutions and playfulness.
