Pleased to announce our 5th album as a duet. *
Fata Turchina: the fairy who saves Pinocchio from several mishaps, an
archetypal good lady of the woodlands, living alone in a cabin with
magic philtres & the ability to charm birds. The first tracks are
improvisations recorded in Bulgaria in 2018, while staying in a cottage
in the small village of Belovo, songs forgotten, left hanging, up in the
air, in the forward rush of life. Rediscovered last week during some
seasonal archive cleaning, we decided to release them, adding reverb,
boosting some frequencies, making us a pretty new album of lost moments
in paradise regained.
In the meantime, I also uncovered two other unpublished improvisations,
one of which needed no adjustments whatsoever and which is such a
remarkable display of my violinist partner's skills and sensibility that
it seems impossible to exclude, since even the mood is parallel, as
playful as serious, the microphones well-positioned.
The 3 tracks of Fata Turchina are a group however unto themselves. One
bonus track from 2017 is included for those who purchase the album.
Our thanks to our listeners, our hosts in Bulgaria and the Great Spirit that makes us all creative human beings rather than puppets.
