Udopia, the debut album from Greek oud virtuoso and composer Thimios Atzakas, features a selection of his own compositions and arrangements created over the last several years. His style is strongly influenced by Oriental traditions; when merged with his background in European jazz and contemporary classical music, an intriguing fusion results, a sound world of its own that defies any concrete definitions. The ensemble consists of seven musicians from world, classical and jazz who have played together in this formation for many years, forging a mutual understanding that transcends conventional stylistic boundaries.
