# On Jorge Cumbo's Work This album merits attention for its thoughtful engagement with narrative and tradition. Cumbo constructs a sonic landscape that treats its subject matter—suggested by the title's reference to old horses—with genuine curiosity rather than sentimentality. The craft demonstrates a composer willing to explore how memory and decay function within music itself, examining what persists when vigor fades. The work occupies an interesting space between documentary impulse and artistic interpretation, inviting listeners to consider what we preserve and why. It's an album that rewards patient attention, offering the kind of specificity that deepens with repeated listening.
