about

Since its early days in Ancient China, tea – the second most consumed beverage in the world,
after water – has been valued for its potential for invigoration, medicinal use, and meditation. Its
link to the Taoist and Buddhist contemplative traditions is perhaps best captured by the phrase
“Zen and tea – one flavour”.
Each piece on this album was created as a multi-track improvisation during a long session with
multiple infusions of one kind of tea. Palimpsests; meditations; compositions in layers of time.
They are homages, in a way, but also invitations – to sit, to brew a pot of tea, and to listen.
