Craftsmanship that blurs the boundary between reality and fantasy
The Chai Masters' music is a celebration of narrative imagination. Their original compositions are inspired by one of the most unique literary movements of the last century: Magic Realism. Like a story that blurs the line between reality and fantasy, the repertoire is a framework where flamenco, film soundtracks and jazz intermingle. Complex rhythms are combined with evocative melodies, and merged into the textures of the united horns and voice. Following its selection for the finals of Keep an Eye The Records, the band released its debut album, Magic Realism, under Challenge Records. It has been selected Jazz Album of the Week by NDR (DE) and received very positive reviews in the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium.
