Ashira [CD]

Gamelan Salukat X Jan Kadereit - Ashira [CD]

Newest album by renowned Gamelan orchestra Salukat and award-winning composer Jan Kadereit. Salukat is one of the most acclaimed ensembles dedicated to contemporary ethnological music in the world. This resulting album is full of unheard harmonies and beautifully intertwined melodies. It ranges from meditative pieces rich in sounds to burstful, highly joyous and energetic pieces that bring out the skill of the virtuosic musicians. They seem to effortlessly bend the flow of time, seemingly dancing through multiple rhythms like on the title track "Ashira." In the same composition, the differently tuned sets of instruments are combined to create colors that no other ensemble in the world can replicate. 01. Kampana - Vibration, Trembling 02.
