Description
Renaud Garcia-Fons is one of the most virtuosic double bass players in the world.
Renaud GarcÃa-Fons is one of the most virtuosic double bass player in the jazz and worldmusic scene. Along with Derya Türkan, he creates on 'Silk Moon'an intimite and lyric duo album. Türkan plays the kamancheh, which is a middle-east bowed sting instrument. Their two instruments, the more little and the biggest among strings instruments, sound like a true orchestra even if they're only two.
A friendly partnership links these two musicians since a long time, when they met with famous Ney player Kudsi Erguner. In 2006 they were already playing together on the album Minstrel Era dedicated to classical ottoman music with cellist Ugur Isic. Renaud and Derya like lyrical expression and the deep chant from tradition, Oriental and Magam and Cante Jondo from Andalucia. Beyond the classical use of their instruments , they discover together new musical spaces subtle and poetics.
A geat emotional moment with an instrumentation never used before.
