“And I Thought These Are My People” is the third single out from Kim Myhr’s upcoming album “Sympathetic Magic”, an ecstatic, delirious, and deeply touching piece of music; a towering new work in Kim Myhr’s increasingly substantial output as an artist and composer.
«The opening track, “And I Thought These Are My People”, is from a lecture by choreographer Jonathan Burrows, where he at some point talked about feeling a sense of belonging when you experience certain artists’ work. A gesture of love and generosity, as well as of gratitude; it seemed to fit both the feeling of the piece itself, and being the opening track, it felt like a good invitation to the rest of the record»
