Acoustic, living music for reflection and discovery - Magic Carpet takes flight with extended improvisations over original and traditional compositions. Turkish and Greek melodies mingle with Spanish bulerías and Cuban rhythms. Indian ragas and Middle Eastern grooves weave into a rich musical tapestry. With roots in traditional music from around the world, we draw inspiration from our shared connection and our environment, to reveal music of the moment.
