One of the earliest and finest exponents of world jazz, Oregon began life in 1970 as an offshoot of the Paul Winter Consort, in which the group's original members had played. From the beginning, the band eschewed most jazz conventions. Percussionist Collin Walcott played tabla, sitar, and dulcimer, among other instruments, but did not use a trap set; bassist Glen Moore doubled on clarinet, viola, and piano, and its front line was formed by a double-reedist (Paul McCandless) and an acoustic guitarist (Ralph Towner).
Olivia Ruiz est de retour ! Ce nouveau disque, son quatrième, est son disque. Celui qu'elle a pensé, celui qu'elle a rêvé, celui sur lequel elle a travaillé, seule dans l'écriture et la composition, tout au long de ces derniers mois alternant les hauts et les bas, le jour et la nuit, le noir, le blanc et les couleurs, l'alternatif comme le continu. Entre le calme et les tempêtes. « Le calme et la tempête », une évidence donc. Entre profondeur des mots et profondeur des sons, jamais elle n'avait donné cette impression de puiser si loin en elle pour trouver la source de ses chansons.
