The distinguished Guadeloupian drummer-composer Arnaud Dolmen returns with a third album, LeNo, in duo with his long-time accomplice, the talented Brazilian pianist Lenardo Montana.

A modern album where the piano-drums-choirs are sufficient in themselves.
"Our mission as artists is to share with the world the hope, the madness that comes with listening to your own self.
"LeNo is a call to freedom" Arnaud Dolmen & Leonardo Montana.
This opus presents 12 titles, all arranged by Arnaud Dolmen and Leonardo Montana. There we find their duo compositions ("Les Invisibles Part 1", "Spirale", available in 4 parts), compositions by the drummer ("Hey Cousin", "Zouky Monky", "LeNo") and the pianist ('Agora Sim", "Hajj"). On two tracks, the duo revisits two standards: that of Cuban percussionist Mongo Santamaria with his title "AfroBlue" ("Les Invisibles Part 2") and of Argentinian bassist Pedro Aznar ("Romance de la Luna Tucumana
