About The Album:
The album “Stay Together” was inspired by the gravity in the universe and the love within us, drawing a parallel between how both planets and people are held together to maintain stable systems and create harmony.
The album aims to convey the importance of reflecting on our role in society in the face of significant global migrations. The music is intended to encourage the audience to consciously recognize our shared connection to this small planet, despite our differences. Our community is like a universe, where galaxies and quantum worlds influence each other despite vast distances. In our closest relationships, we can create harmony by showing respect, empathy, and solidarity. Just as gravity keeps planets in their orbits, mutual respect helps us coexist in balance. This work is dedicated to all those who lost loved ones during and after the pandemic, to my fellow musicians for continuing to create culture even in the most challenging times, and to my family for all the love they have given me during these turbulent years.
About The Music:
Under the leadership of drummer Pablo Sáez, Surensemble’s distinctive sound was always represented by their two unique guitarists creating with electric and acoustic guitars a diverse musical landscape. This time, the rhythm section is expanded with four wind instruments: flute, saxophone, trumpet, and trombone. Alongside Latin percussion, drawn from Chile, Brazil, and Peru, the band incorporates electronic elements, including samples that play a significant role in shaping their sound. “Stay Together” includes a notable collaboration with renowned Italian philosopher Donatella di Cesare, bringing a unique philosophical dimension to the music. Furthermore, the album showcases the exceptional vocals of Niel de Grace Tyson, recorded specifically for this project.
The tracks on “Stay Together” are infused with Latin jazz influences, presenting spacious arrangements and graceful, rhythmic elegance. The band’s remarkable ability to blend Afro- American roots and folkloric nuances with the contemporary and fusion jazz.
