PRESS QUOTES
«The Wind stands as another haunting work of dark lyricism and sweet melancholy from an exceptional artist.»
ALL ABOUT JAZZ (USA)
«The unique German/Afghan singer Simin Tander’s The Wind (Jazzland Recordings), a mix of originals and Pashto and European traditionals, draws on her tender ballad delivery, wild, wordless improv and percussive exhalations, while Norwegian-Indian violinist Harpreet Bansal and electric bass and drums often kick up hard-grooving storms.»
THE GUARDIAN (UK)
«Simin Tander mines her family heritage on THE WIND. (…) keening like the wind (…) slow and deep (…) from low howles to a thundering climax.»
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️FINANCIAL TIMES (UK)
«The strikingly pliant vocals of German-Afghan singer (..) from breathy tenderness to sudden, tremulous passion accompanied by violinist Harpreet Bansal, percussionist Samuel Rohrer and bassist Björn Meyer. (…).astonishing.»
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ THE SCOTSMAN (UK)
«Ethereal, haunting music (…) divine.»
JAZZWISE Magazine (UK)
«Simin Tander has delivered a work of high artistic integrity and executional rigor. THE WIND doesn’t just float; it carries. (…) a multilingual, multi-modal exploration of jazz vocalism at the intersection of European jazz and world music. Tander’s vocal phrasing is expressive and improvisational (…) strength through subtlety (…) raw, committed, and technically nuanced.»
