Nguyen -Trio- Le - Silk and Sand

Silk, an image of Asia & the Orient, in which shades sparkle in the sands of the deserts of Africa. Fervent melodies fly away on rhythms of trance, chanting instruments move across continents without weakening their origin. Born from a butterfly, finesse makes a radiant wedding with primal earth. On my album “Three Trios” from 1996, I named two pieces “Silk” and “Sand“: Precious, yet strong Silk, weaving interplay between musicians; Desert sands haunting musician‘s dream of elsewhere… 26 years later, these titles perpetuate like pebbles placed along the path traced by one’s strides. Thanks to Rhani Krija for the North African rhythm ideas!
