Yussi & Django
play an exotic and energetic style of acoustic guitar instrumental
music that is spiced with fiery improvisation in the tradition of
Eastern European Gypsy, Spanish flamenco and American jazz players.
Their exciting, virtuosic playing is captured on this CD, accompanied
by some of Los Angeles' finest young musicians on fretless bass
and percussion. Their
original compositions blend Spanish and Middle Eastern guitar melodies
with powerful Latin and Persian rhythms, and the result is an intriguing
and playful sound similar to the Gypsy Kings, Ottmar Liebert, Strunz
and Farah (with whom both have studied), and even John McLaughlin.
This is an incredibly
musical partnership, utilizing fluid ensemble lines and intelligent
harmonies to showcase their amazing technical abilities. Theirs
is a music with sweetness, soul, precision, and youthful energy.
