Nefes - Damla (2019) [Hi-Res]

The third Nefes-album Damla ('a drop') marks the 25 years anniversary of this Helsinki based group. Through the arrangements of the tracks on this recording the group crosses boundaries boldly from Turkish music to many others – e.g. to blues. You will find also two beautiful traditional tunes for children.
Yet another track to be mentioned is Nikriz Peşrev by Ismaîl Hakki Bey (1866-1927), which has seldom been recorded.
