Album: Raz

Raz, the debut album of the Vienna-based Trio Terrea, presents compositions by Amir Ahmadi, in which fragments of Persian musical vocabulary are intertwined with elements of modern music and shaped into a distinctly personal musical language. With a focus on microtonality, the trio creates a sonic landscape on this album where tradition and modernity confront each other. Raz moves seamlessly between jazz, fusion, traditional influences, and contemporary music. The trio brings these diverse idioms together into a musical language that feels subtle, exploratory, and deeply rooted in cultural dialogue. “Some albums thrive on contrast. Raz, the debut album by Vienna-based Trio Terrea, thrives on encounter.” — jazz-fun.de (translated from German)
