“The album's title, Niente (Italian, literally translated as “nothing”), is a musical term indicating a marking for the performer to fade the music as it concludes to little more than a whisper. The word is employed here to underscore the crucial role of dynamics in the emotional scope of the work. As the songs unfold like half-remembered stories, or dreams, the simple melodies inspire a sense of nostalgia for a calmer time. “ - Amos Cochran, 2020
