'\u003ci\u003eASTRAL'\u003c\/i\u003edemonstrates their influence and her talent for creating harmonic and melodious original music, full of modernity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e'Leila's music has compositional and conceptual integrity - recurring themes intertwine and morph through the title track 'ASTRAL', the trippy interlude 'Interstellaire' and the song 'Au Feu Des Reves'. There are surprises waiting around every corner, and she deftly avoids any hint of that tired old 'head insolo-solo-solo-head out' formula. Odd meters dance effortlessly, and she's not afraid to swing! While her original music is the focus of this album, Leila's fresh arrangement of Mary Lou Williams' classic 'Scorpio' is a lovely bonus. This is fully contemporary acoustic jazz on a high level, with brilliant musicians that interpret and breathe her musical visions to life.' - \u003cstrong\u003eGeoffrey Keezer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAstral\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMary Lou\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlack widow\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterstellaire\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eScorpio\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstellation Draconis\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGalactica\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConstellation Ellipsis\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSoustraire a la lumiere\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAu feu des reves\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePortrait\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMissing CC\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54420539113857,"sku":"2386363","price":16.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/3521383470749.jpg?v=1750593393","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/2386363","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
