Zafon, by KV Express

Zafon

by KV Express

supported by

Philip Graham Any band that includes an accordion, a nyckelharpa and an oud has the attention of all my ears. Favorite track: Malone.

Sven B. Schreiber (sbs) homerecords.be is a Belgian label that releases various kinds of exquisite and predominantly unusual music. "KV Express" is an enchanting folk project, initiated by Belgian accordionist and composer Sophie Cavez. She's active in various other collaborative projects, like "Dazibao" with co-writer Jonathan De Neck (see homerecords.be catalog), and "Duo Montanaro Cavez" with violinist Baltazar Montanaro. If you love the sound of the accordion and cheerful folk music, this album is for you. Favorite track: Rose.

about

The repertoire of KV Express is entirely made up of personal compositions of Sophie Cavez which creates a universe at the same time powerful, festive and sensitive. The pieces are inspired by the traditional music of here and elsewhere and the poetic writing of the author Carlos Ruiz Zafòn.
The different instruments intermingle in arrangements that make both the feet and the ears dance.
The musicians invited on this new record are all very active in different areas and styles of music. The richness of their experience and influences is found in the repertoire and adds a unique sound. The diatonic accordion game and Sophie's compositions are quite innovative in the world of folk music. A modern sound that recolores traditional music.
After 2 cd's ("Luna" and "D-Sensation"), KV Express presents its third opus "Zafon" which will be performed on stage with Bo Waterschoot on bass and Jo Zanders on percussion.

It's always worth hearing class explorations in music as brought to you by Dewa Budjana. Here, you can find out for free - but it's well worth taking the punt on the $15 offer. Peter Jones
