Description

“The Flying Carpet” unites folk music inspiration with original compositions, landing loosely between the lines defining the genre off world music. The academic, rock-pop and acoustical musical experiences of the legendary Latvian folk-diva Ieva Akuratere meld with Zane Šmite’s deep grasp and longstanding contributions to ethno-music to draw a new breath in the magically inspiring space of Latvian folklore, both singers’voices surprising the listener with their rotating sequences of mutual harmony and opposition.
