• Unorthadox, multi-instrumentalist, Catalan composer-musician, Pascal Comelade presents this delightful retrospective of recordings made with the Cobla Sant Jordi between 1990 and 2010.

• The ‘cobla’ is a Catalan band normally consisting of 10 wind instruments, double bass and a ‘tamborí’ (very small drum). The five woodwind instruments include the traditional ‘flabiol’ flute), ‘tenora’ and ‘tible’ oboes family, two trumpets, two ‘fiscorns’ (a type of sax-horn)and a valve trombone. Cobla bands normally play traditional ‘sardana’ music.

• Comelade, who composed all the pieces, adds his own unique style : playing piano, toy piano, accordion, guitars, electric accompanied by a trio of musicians headed by faithful multi-instrumentalist Pep Pascual, Ivan Martinez, guitars, and Oriol Moon, drums. Plus guest flautist Pau Riba and Enric Casasses, who plays the triangle on one track and wrote the sleeve notes.
