Silk and Sand

Description

Nguyên Lê returns with Chris Jennings and Rhani Krija! Silk, an image of Asia and the East, where the shades shimmer in the sands of the African deserts. Fervent melodies soar on trance rhythms, singing instruments cross continents without weakening in their origin. Born from a butterfly, delicacy makes a radiant marriage with the primitive earth. "On my album "Three Trios" from 1996, I named two pieces "Silk" and "Sand": Silk, precious but strong, weaves the play of the musicians; the desert sand haunts the musician's dream of elsewhere... 26 years later, these titles endure like pebbles placed along the path traced by each person's steps." - Nguyên Lê
