Album Notes & Community Reviews

Expanding their unique chamber-music approach, the Belgian collective seamlessly weaves Parisian vaudeville, jazz Manouche, and whimsical folk on this eccentric release. 'Emballade...' relies entirely on acoustic instrumentation like the clarinet, violin, and piano to evoke a distinctly nostalgic, cinematic, and deeply romantic European atmosphere. It stands as an utterly charming, anachronistic pop experiment.
