The album’s concise title reflects the shared essence of both musicians. Reed in English refers both to a plant and the vibrating reed found in their instruments. This image symbolises a fundamental part of their sound. Just as the wind sets reeds in motion, the performers masterfully shape sound with their controlled breath. The album’s 11 compositions take the listener on a journey through a landscape of musical contrasts, ensuring an engaging and immersive experience.
