Recorded at Studioboerne45, in Berlin, Germany, on June 13th 2023, by Ernesto Rodrigues.
Emulating the Korean river Taedong through it's undulating flows, uproar, flux and treachery in eleven succinct chamber-oriented improvisations from the quartet of South Korean tenor saxophonist Jung-Jae Kim, French-born South Korean-based drummer Quentin Cholet, with the Portuguese father/son duo of Ernesto Rodrigues on viola and Guilherme Rodrigues on cello. These recordings were captured in the studio in Berlin where Guilherme Rodrigues is based, each piece easily flowing into the next as their expressive playing approximates the large river, whose basin is believed to be the location of the Taedonggang Culture.
