Siwan - Jon Balke, Amina Alaoui (ECM Records, ECM2042)
We have a long-standing collaboration with the Norwegian jazz pianist and composer Jon Balke, and are proud to be part of his Siwan project. Siwan is a transnational, transcultural project that takes its inspiration from the poetry of Al-Andalus, a period when three major cultures co-existed and exchanged artistic and scientific ideas.
This recording was released in 2009 on ECM.
