This is the 59th solo album recorded by Klaus Schulze. We've been waiting a long time for it. It's Klaus Schulze's first solo album with newly recorded studio music since "Shadowlands"in 2013. On that album he had a few unnamed guest musicians. The last album that he made as a pure solo effort, without any other musicians, was "Kontinuum"in 2007.
In the liner notes Klaus refers to "Silhouettes" as a private concert. By that I assume that he played the music at home spontaneously, with a minimum of mixing afterwards; maybe no mixing at all. That was the way he made his early albums, such as "Timewind" in 1975.
The first two tracks are very majestic, as if played in a cathedral. They're slow and heavy (in a positive sense), although the second track includes a short sequencer interlude. "Quae Simplex" is a lighter piece with a simple sequencer rhythm. "Châteaux faits de vents" is a slow piece to end the album.
This isn't a great album, but it's a solid piece of work.
