The first of Michael Vetter's records devoted to the tambura and his own voice, recorded in Munich in October 1982. Two long meditations, 25 and 20 minutes, where the drone of the instrument holds steady and the voice draws overtones out of it, slowly opening a space of listening rather than telling a story.
It belongs to the Wergo Spectrum series, which in the eighties gave room to meditative and overtone music alongside contemporary composition. Released on CD in 1984, with a 12-page booklet and a mandala drawn by Vetter.
