Description/Reviews
The fourth released studio album combines all that made the band famous in the late 1990’s. The singularity of Narajama’s music still continues to be underlined by the inclusion of the cimbalom among classic rock instruments. The convergence and inosculation of music styles, especially but not only rock and folk music, have always marked Narajama but this time the band goes even beyond. And the result? Philosophically approached pictorial music!
This musical act titled „Convergere“, aptly captures the content of a very colorful album. It brings a mix of elements of Moravian folklore, jazz, progressive and alternative rock, afro- latin rhythms underscored with Australian didgeridoo. The primal impulse in most new songs was an endeavor to combine afro- latin rhythms with Moravian folk song or vice versa. What clearly contributed to this fact is the repeated presence of the cimbalom player and vocalist and the original approach of drums tastefully supported by percussions.
