In fact "Tahawal / Metamorphose" is Pierre Clavé's first album, tinged with Arab-Ottoman and flamenco sounds, contained in a Pop format. An instrumental, multicultural, permanent and total metamorphosis, composed and recorded entirely in improvised solo taqasims, oriental and with cyclical melodies, from Oud to guitar, Tahawal is like a bridge launched between East and West.
