Description
Stephan Micus is a one-man universe of sound. He collects and studies instruments from around the world and creates his own musical journeys with them. This is his 24th solo album for ECM created in his studio with many recordings and overdubs.
The twelve tracks on Winter's End feature two new instruments, the chikulo from Mozambique and a Central African-style tongue drum. In addition there's kalimba (thumb piano), sinding (Gambian harp), Egyptian nay flute, Japanese nohkan flute, Balinese suling flute, bowed sattar from Xinjiang, Tibetan cymbals, Peruvian charango and a 12-string guitar. Most of these have never sounded together before.
Stephan Micus: chikulo, nohkan, 12-string guitar, tongue drums, voice, kalimba, sinding, charango, ney, sattar, Tibetan cymbals
