VoicEquilibrium is music centered round the voice in a contemporary jazz context. It moves on a spectrum from gentle elegance to vehemently experimental utilizing organic live looping, extended vocal techniques and a sense of mutual vibration with the piano. The listener is drawn into captivating vocal reflections simultaneously exploring and keeping its balance.

Behind VoicEquilibrium is singer & improvisor, Pernille Mejer Richardt about whom it is predicted that she will further develop jazz and improvised music in the future. The Scandinavian jazz press has even described her as a courageous and original artist with the skills to do things differently, and with a voice able to practice wise, yet calm voice-acrobatics.

Depth & Ease is a collection of five musical solo pieces which is the result of exploring depth & ease as artistic concept in the vocal expression. It begins with the piece Ease, a vocal reflection on the still water, mirroring the sky, the state of soft fascination nature brings us.
