The Sabi star flower, also known as the Desert Rhodes, can be found from North Africa and the Sahara to the south of Natal and Swaziland. Sabi Stars seed travels through the vast wilderness, crossing borders and countries. Like the Sabi star, we also plan a journey based on old and new melodies we love, drawing musical material from the endless musical tradition of the wider Greek space, just like the journey of our flower! The guitar intertwines with contrabase, the piano with Santur and the three voices together, create a colorful musical environment.
