To bookDescription
Drawing on the fabulous legend of the Morin khuur, the duo offers us here a crazy and moving story, in the heart of Mongolia.<div> Long ago in Mongolia lived Princess Tsolmon, who was in love with a humble shepherd. When he had to return home to the distant Gobi Desert, where his family and flock awaited him, Tsolmon gave him a winged horse so he could travel the thousands of kilometers that separated them each night. They lived happily each night for many years—until that winter day when a jealous woman cut off the horse's wings...</div><div> When classical pianist Susanna met Mandakh, a virtuoso of the fiddle and throat singing, the Gobi Rhapsodie duo was born as if by design, and with it a unique and captivating music, at the crossroads of Mongolian songs and classical and jazz music.</div>
