Nguyên Lê Saiyuki Trio

The final concert of the Brno Music Marathon will be performed by the international Saiyuki Trio, the festival's resident artist, guitarist Nguyên Lê, koto player Mieko Miyazaki and tabla virtuoso Prabhu Edouard. The project is based on the motifs of the classic 16th-century Chinese novel Journey to the West (known in our country as The Monkey King) and connects Japanese, Indian and Vietnamese musical traditions with jazz and improvisation. The trio works with acoustic instruments, electronics and elements of contemporary world music.
