July 2020

Recorded at the late Jan Erik Kongshaus’s Rainbow studio, its trademark, ECM-defining resonance also helps put us in Nordic dreamtime. These seven ballads are all elegies to experience, with Sultanov’s balmy melancholy and introspective flights sometimes shooting off fierier plumes, but otherwise ruminative, as he seeks the spiritual in heart-slowing calm.
