Recorded at Rhodes University Beethoven Room,
Grahamstown, Eastern Cape, South Africa
26 November 2015

"The day we met" recalls the first encounter (in Grahamstown, a small town in rural Eastern Cape) between a local Xhosa pianist and a European saxophone player who happened to study at Rhodes University. 
From that day on we developed a certain kind of sound,  harmonic texture and aim for melodies that crystalized into this first tune composed together.
