Man's soul, Equals the water:
From Heaven it comes,
To Heaven it rises, And downward again
It must descend to the earth, Forever changing. ------- Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

After the successful release of "Bandidos De Amor" by Yussi & Django, and his earlier collaboration with "Axiom of Choice" on their debut album "Beyond Denial", Yussi releases El Pirata as his first solo album. In this release, Yussi plays an exotic and energetic style of instrumental guitar music that is spiced with fiery improvisations in the tradition of Eastern European Gypsy, Spanish flamenco and American jazz players. His original compositions blend Spanish and Middle Eastern guitar melodies with powerful Latin and Persian rhythms. His music has sweetness, soul, precision, and youthful energy. More Information
