Diamanda Galás — All the Way + At Saint Thomas the Apostle Harlem ↔★••→ All the Way and At Saint Thomas the Apostle Harlem are Galás’ first albums since 2008.
↔★••→ Live at St. Thomas the Apostle documents Galás’ volcanic May 2016 performance at St. Thomas the Apostle church in Harlem NY, described by the New York Times as “guttural and operatic, baleful and inconsolable, spiritual and earthy, polyglot and wordless, nuanced and unhinged.” The concert, produced by Intravenal Sound Operations and Red Bull Music Academy, was composed exclusively of what Galás calls “death songs”. © Diamanda Galas performs on the opening night of Antony's Meltdown at the Royal Festival Hall Photograph Matt Kent Redferns

↔★••→ Avant~garde icon Diamanda Galás’ last album was 2008’s Guilty Guilty Guilty. This year, the singer and composer release two new records on the same day. All the Way features re~worked versions of traditional and jazz standards; At Saint Thomas the Apostle Harlem was recorded at the titular New York church during last year’s Red Bull Music Academy.
↔★••→ All the Way is a collection of radical re~workings of traditional and jazz standards such as “All the Way”, “You Don’t Know What Love Is”, and “The Thrill Is Gone” (made famous by Chet Baker). It also includes a solo piano interpretation of Thelonious Monk’s “Round Midnight”, and live voice and piano interpretations of the American traditional “O Death” and the country song, “Pardon Me I’ve Got Someone to Kill”. The album includes both electric live performances (recorded in Paris, Copenhagen, and East Sussex) and studio recordings made in San Diego, CA.
↔★••→ Live at St. Thomas the Apostle documents Galás’ volcanic May 2016 performance at St. Thomas the Apostle church in Harlem NY, described by the New York Times as “guttural and operatic, baleful and inconsolable, spiritual and earthy, polyglot and wordless, nuanced and unhinged.” The concert, produced by Intravenal Sound Operations and Red Bull Music Academy, was composed exclusively of what Galás calls “death songs”.
