Album Notes & Community Reviews
Recorded in Sweden, the trumpeter delves completely into acoustic, deeply ritualistic world-music fusions. Exploring Tibetan bells, gongs, and the Malian doussn'gouni alongside deeply meditative improvisations, the album represents a profoundly serene, pan-global departure from traditional jazz structures.
