I found this wonderful neo-classical chamber music from Taiwan in the collection of "Manuela", besides other quite interesting albums. The artist site on Bandcamp doesn't disclose much detail about the musicians constituting "Cicada", but a little internet research reveals that this string trio plus piano and guitar, which dedicates its works to the praise and protection of the beauty of mother nature, is led by pianist and main composer Jesy Chiang, who does a terrific job. This pefectly arranged, classically inspired music is enthralling from the first note to the last - there's not a single weak track. Simply magnificent! Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)
