Creative modern classical composer vaghy has unveiled his latest single, "When The Night Falls," featuring the ethereal talents of interdisciplinary artist Ohnody. Accompanied by a visually stunning music video, the pair showcase a monumental collaboration that has already garnered the support of the National Cultural Fund of Hungary.
Vághy, a Budapest-based artist with a rich musical background, began playing piano at the tender age of six and has since forged a unique path, blending classical training with innovative modern compositions. Under the vaghy moniker, he has crafted serene symphonies using a mix of piano, synthesisers, and vintage instruments. Drawing inspiration from Keith Jarrett’s seminal album The Köln Concert, his music resonates with fans of Björk, AURORA, and Laura Marling, establishing him as a contemporary voice in the genre.
In this collaboration, Ohnody, the solo project of Dori Hegyi, brings her emotive vocals and artistic depth to the table. Known for her ability to intertwine visual art with music and poetry, Ohnody's contributions are elevated by her recognition as Hungary's first ambassador for the Spotify Equal campaign and her impressive accolades, including the Artisjus Award for exceptional songwriting.
"When The Night Falls" is a masterclass in composition, showcasing vaghy’s exceptional piano prowess. The track opens with a tender yet poignant piano melody, creating a haunting backdrop for Ohnody’s succulent vocals. This deeply moving piece explores themes of grief and renewal, enhanced by subtle electronic elements that weave through the soundscape, inviting listeners on an emotional journey.
The accompanying music video, directed by Bence Szemerey of Odesa Films, reflects the duality of the song’s themes. It features a breathtaking performance by a dancer, contrasting shots of her movements in an empty home and amidst the tranquil embrace of a forest. The use of the "blue hour"—that enchanting time just after sunset—adds a layer of magic, perfectly encapsulating the moment when light and dark coexist. The imagery resonates with the song's exploration of transition, making it a visual feast that enhances the auditory experience.
In "When The Night Falls," vaghy and Ohnody have created a strikingly beautiful piece that captures the essence of their artistic visions. This collaboration not only solidifies their places in the contemporary music landscape but also invites listeners to embrace the delicate interplay of emotion, light, and shadow.
