2003 recording by Argentine marimba player Horacio Straijer alongside guitarist Sergio Romano.
Horacio Straijer: marimba, bombo legüero, percussion
Sergio Romano: guitar
“A surprisingly relaxing mix of minimalist jazz and Argentinean folk music of many kinds; including Andean, a style of music usually associated with panpipes and flutes. Horacio Straijers’ marimba playing has the crisp, clear sound of a classically-trained musician, but his interests and accomplishments on simple bomba drum and acoustic guitar are more rooted in folk music…difficult to categorize, yet fine, skilled music.” – World Discoveries
All tracks recorded in Estudio de Sergio Romano, Buenos Aires, Argentina, 2003.
