Batoru could be the name of an african bird; here it refers to an idea that – after careful preparation – finally turned into music in 1996. The suite „Elegy for Africa“ was inspired by various travels through Africa and is a musical dedication to the continent of colours and rhythm. Subtly moving grooves supported by an ingenious texture of minimalist ideas, form the basis for expansive melodic developement. drumbeats and heartbeats. The traditional responsibilities of soloinstruments and rhythm section dissolve into a richly woven tapestry of rhythm and tonal colours, that becomes the instantly recognizable hallmark of Batoru.
