Time to Die is the fourth solo album by Christine Ott, and is described as the sequel to her second album Only Silence Remains released in 2016.[1] The album is opening by a reference to Ridley Scott's Blade Runner; the title track pivots around that Rutger Hauer monologue,[2] here narrated by Casey Brown on a particular combination of Ondes Martenot, synthesizers, timpani and tubular bells. The album is then developing very different orchestrations on the subject of death and rebirth.[3] [4] For the musician and director Fredo Viola ; "The way I see the album is as a series of quite cinematic meditations on the theme of death and dying, changing prismatically, up to that incredibly delicate and beautiful conclusion.."[5]
