LIQUID GARDENS 1999: 65 minutes/ 11 tracks

This album marks a major evolution in the career of Levi Chen. Ultimately relaxing, Levi’s crystalline guitar voice, and the delicate weeping of his Chinese harp (Gu Zheng) set the tone as always. However this recording is also full of sensuous grooves, is playful and passionate, powerful and poignant. It is a definitive statement of Levi’s unique compositional and guitar style, as well as his original approach to the Chinese harp. He is joined by a supporting cast of top LA musicians and guest artists on drums, bass, vibes, flute, banjo, tamboura and percussion.

 

“Not afraid of silence, Chen doesn’t inundate the listener with a barrage of notes: rather he places notes as an artist might paint, precisely and impeccably, weaving whole cloth out of the musical heritage of two wildly disparate times and cultures...a deeply spiritual, meditative jam session... Not only is this an East meets West musical experience, it is an ancient East meets modern West!” New Age Retailer Magazine ´96
