Siempre by Masal
Siempre blends fire and water, raw ardor and extreme gentleness. It is important to listen to it as a journey, the order of the compositions being far from random.
Siempre emphasizes the timeless aspect of these pieces written by the composer many years ago (between 1974 and 1985), and shows the deep roots of Jean-Paul Prat's music.
Siempre delivers a message that everyone will discover in their own way, with their own sensitivity. Combining pyromaniac energy and enveloping sweetness, it awakens, delights, moves and questions.
