Description
The musical explorations of Guo Gan, virtuoso of the erhu (characteristic Chinese bowed instrument) continue. Here he meets the baglama (long handle lute of the Anatolian music) played by Emre Gultekin and Levent Yildirim, considered one of the modern pioneers of percussion in the Middle East.

Guo Gan, on the seventh CD with Felmay presents 'Gobi Desert' his trio formed with two Turkish musicians. In the opening piece, which also gives the title to the album, the atmosphere created by the lyrical sound of the erhu is supported by the percussions that create a suspended soundscape. The whole CD is pervaded by a music with an immediate emotional grip, evocative of wide spaces and able of stimulate the imagination of the listener. The dreamlike sound of the erhu and the bright sound of the baglama intertwine in an equal relationship and collaborate in developing a logical thread, always supported by percussion, that never become predominant.
