about

In this extraordinary collaboration, Ivo Perelman, Aruan Ortiz, and Lester St. Louis create a musical tapestry rich with cultural depth and diverse influences. Perelman, a native of Brazil, and Ortiz, hailing from Cuba, share a vibrant Afro-Cuban and Afro-Brazilian musical heritage. This heritage, imbued with rhythms of Africa and further enriched by the history of the native Cuban and Brazilian populations and the colonizing Spanish and Portuguese cultures, gives rise to a profoundly dense and complex sound.

Ortiz is particularly noted for his intellectual approach to music, seamlessly combining ethnic folk backgrounds with contemporary classical music elements. His contributions lend a richness to the album's texture that is hard to overlook. St. Louis' mastery of the cello provides a dynamic contrast. He is an exceptional talent, deeply versed in the jazz legacy, contemporary improvisational music, and classical music. His versatility allows him to play the cello traditionally or play it almost like a horn, a unique twist that elevates the entire project. This album is a testament to the potent combination of their unique backgrounds, promising an enriching experience for listeners, and a bright future for further collaborations.
