Reverence by Daniel Berkman

“Reverence” is a collection of short piece for Ondomo composed shortly after I got my first instrument in 2017.
I’ve included some newer pieces from 2022 (Fever Dream, Fortelling, Reach You, The First 80 Years Are The Hardest and Reverence).

The Ondomo is a modern electronic instrument designed by Naoyuki Omo and modeled after the Ondes Martenot, invented in 1928 by Maurice Martenot.

Thank you to Naoyuki, my collaborators on this album; Artemis Robison and Darin Wilson, J.S. Bach, Oliver Messiaen for bringing the Ondes to the stage, Maurice Martenot and to my mother and late father for instilling in me such a passion for music.
