Three years after the
last studio Album "Kremasta Nera", ATARAXIA are back with a
marvellous new album on Prikosnovenie. "Llyr" (Lyra) is the name
of the instrument of the bards and the Greek lyrical poets; a
sacred musical instrument visually inspired by the grace and
nobleness of the swans.
ATARAXIA, on this
voyage, played the following instruments: classical, folk and
12-string guitars, chitarra battente, keyboards, flutes,
sitar, gamelan, daf, frame drums, santoor, tablas, zard and
bells. Female vocals are sometimes accompanied by male vocals.
This album is a new story inspired by pagan myths, feminine
celebrations of Mother Nature and celtic traditions.
ATARAXIA and charismatic singer Francesca Nicoli have created
their very own, incomparable genre of music: a cosmogenic dark
folk praying for beauty.
