Zephyr
Where Winds MeetWhere Winds Meet
The phenomenal flute trio Zephyr has recently released their first album, October Ocean, on the Playing With Music label. An encounter extraordinaire between three of Sweden’s top world and folk flutists. The vast musical landscapes span from far-north heaths to rush-hour traffic in a hotter climate. Remarkable rhythms percolating throughout melodies and sound excursions under the sea, providing music like nothing ever heard before. Winds ranging from a soft breeze, a bracing north wind, a sultry monsoon, to hurricane force.
