In the past two decades,
Tashi Dorji has traveled
a long road, recording
several dozen albums and
touring the world, playing
his guitar solo and in collaboration with inspired
others. Gifted with a sensitive ear to the clarion
call of intuitive artistry,
he is forever picking up
his instrument and reaching through it to find new
sounds. In this, he has
distinguished himself
among those who listen
to improvised music as
an incisive, distinctive
player of moments.
We told Tashi we’d love
for him to make a record
for us and he said he’d
love to do it. That was the
end of the discussion. No
parameters. He thought
about it a bit, decided to
make an acoustic guitar
record, then he made it
and here it is. Very beautifully recorded, a probing recital in which music, the tex-
ture of the instrument and the nature of the space in the
moment which it is played are all of equal significance.
