rhabdomantic orchestra: almagre

Manuel Volpe (Rhabdomantic Orchestra) about this album: "This album is a music novel inspired by surrealism and South American magic realism. Every instrument acts as a character in action and its narrative set is studied to give an imaginary experience during the listening. The main themes are the transformation, the spiritual awakening and the political consciousness, the sublime and the worldly. To write it I've studied lot of different music formulas from all over the world (Afrobeat, Sufí music, Balinese gamelan, Colombian corrulao, merengue, Pygmies poliphonies, contemporary... etc.) with the aim to avoid a genre-oriented music but to reach a resume, something like a universal in music."
