“

The great avant-garde pianist Joachim Kühn celebrated his 64th birthday on 15th March, 2008, and spent it in the desert doing what he does best - making music. He played in the middle of the Sahara with Moroccan Berbers, the desert musicians of the “Source Bleue des Meski”, a small oasis near the Algerian border. First they jammed directly at the spring, and then they went and recorded at the near-by Palms Hotel on the outskirts of the town of Erfoud. “It was also completely ringed by desert”, says Kühn. “I’m a fan of the desert, and I have travelled a lot, but the trip here went through some of the most beautiful landscapes I have ever seen. On arrival we immediately started playing; we didn’t do a lot of talking first, although, because of the tourism, the Berbers have a good command of every possible language. These musicians are some of the friendliest, most gracious people I have ever met. They are totally relaxed and open. Everything functioned “Inshallah” with a mixture of planning and improvisation. Ever since I was there, I don’t have any more stress. This was my most beautiful birthday present, a great experience, and an amazing musical inspiration.” Now everyone can hear what so enthralled Kühn; this extraordinary encounter is the core of his new ACT album Out of the Desert (ACT 9475-2).

”

“

With Out of the Desert, Kühn delivers convincing proof that there are still many new words to add to the world language of music, even when one has to go to the desert to find them.
