Terez Sliman // When the Waves // CD
As a singer, songwriter and one of Palestine’s most famous artists, Terez Sliman is known as a woman who writes on hope in times of hopelessness
The music is powerful and dynamic, and the soundscape has a great depth which corresponds with the subtle and enigmatic poetry of Terez in a brilliant way.
Several songs have beautiful, enchanting melodies, the arrangements are mostly very organic, based on improvised musicianship, in others, there are also elements at the borderlands to rap and electronica.
“In your name”, “But we are good”, “A rose”, “Hunger”, “You are”, “Like water”, “When tables will turn”, “When the waves” and “In the name of love”.... are the names of the album’s songs, and each one of these songs is a journey to question, even a bit, about what matters in life, and sometimes we only manage to talk about it in our hidden space, but Terez says it out loud.
