about

This album is a meditative introspection. Each piece is a soft and windy prayer, a meditative improvisation, in which I used only wind instruments as a means to evoke the primordial "wind" and "breath" that shake and emanate all things created.

The pieces of this album are not necessarily meant to be listened in a row, from the first to the last one, but each of them can be used for a specific moment.

Concepts as Nada Brahma or practices as Dhikr were an inspiration at the time of approaching the performance/improvisation of these pieces.

The piece 'I Am Not Afraid Of The Wind' is inspired by the homonymous poem written by Roger Gilbert-Lecomte.
