about

Second volume (published in 2006). In Samsâra, we find the heroine Enora who has become an adult and her companion Maël. The theme always revolves around the search for happiness and the personal quest.
More than thirty musicians took part in this creation: accordion, bombardes, flutes, bodhran violins, kora, udu, zarb or duduk... The coloring often remains Celtic due to the frequent presence of Breton instruments and singing, but takes you into another journey with the Kabyle voice of Farid Aït Siameur and instruments from elsewhere.
The physical album, in 25 x 26cm format, is illustrated with a 60 pages booklet : www.seven-reizh.com/produit/samsara/ .

Download comes with Full Booklet as a pdf
