Listen to the almost human vocal quality of the Chinese violin called the "erhu"(ahr-hoo), exuding a hauntingly beautiful sound rarely heard within a jazz context. The emphasis of this music is on the melody of each song...performed in such a way that the beauty of every note is captured and savored. That is the essence of "Hollow Reed"
Combine this traditional Chinese instrument with the Duke Ellington classic "Prelude To A Kiss" over a jazz rhythm section with Latin percussion...and voila!...a true representation of international harmony. / read more /
