Llama

In Llama, Sílvia Pérez and Ravid Goldschmidt mix the voice up with the special sound of the Hang, a UFO shaped melodic instrument created in Switzerland about 8 years ago based on Trinidad & Tobago Steeldrums. Ravid, with the metallic sound of the hang, and Silvia, with her wonderful voice, take you away through different styles and languages. They both have different influences. Ravid from Brazilian rhythms and Silvia from habaneras, fado, jazz and flamenco. Among them there is a magical musical connection giving as a result a unique sound.

Llama means “Towards the sea” in Hebrew. The group was formed 5 years ago in order to join voice and hang. Due to the special characteristics of the hang, meanwhile Ravid improvises different melodies and rhythms Silvia sings on top improvising too. As a result there are melodies coming from jazz, flamenco, fado and folk songs almost all explaining their own experience.
