Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

The range of this new young vocal trio is immense, their a cappella journeys on this debut album taking in everything from traditional folk to Berio-esque deconstruction, delivered with perfect pitch and an ear for the most apt harmony.

On Elisabeth Lutyens' "Of the Snow", the vocables are delicate and accumulative; on Paul Robinson's "Triadic Riddles of Water", they combine in brook-like babbling interplay; while Kerry Andrews's "Lullaby for the Witching Hour" is suitably spooky. Elsewhere, Andrews's "luna-cy" offers a remarkable assemblage of choreographed keening phrases and sustained glissandi, and Gabriel Prokofiev's "Vue sur la ville depuis la montagne" builds a marvellous vista. .
