Nidi D'arac - Jentu (2025)

JENTU (V2 Records in 2003).
This music, just like the wind (jentu in dialect means wind), has travelled through many places, aromas, sounds and colours. Anyone who today tries to get closer to the music feels he can abandon himself in this flow of rhythms, where the musical traveller finds himself dancing, dreaming and thinking of all those places, smells, sounds and colours that this river has crossed.

Jentu suggests a sophisticated glimpse through the Mediterranean civilisation opening to the Maghreb, the Balkans, Syria. Musically multifaceted and original, Jentu showcases Balkanic brass, Salento drums, bansuri, sitar, esraj in a powerful dialogue with our contemporaneity for a common horizon of knowledge and exchange.
