Learn More »Sound magicians with violoncellos, The Tara Fuki duo, recorded the third album and named it “Auris” (from Latin, meaning an “ear”, but also to hear and listen carefully). Their previous albums were met with both domestic and international success, and brought Tara Fuki to the top of the Czech alternative scene. The band also won an award from Academy of Popular Music; “Andel 2001” for the debut album, Piosenki do snu.
This time, Tara Fuki along with a few guests, offer their listeners an exceptional music tidbit. Contrary to the previous recordings, Auris is emotionally richer and deeper, livelier and with sound that is unique on the Czech musical scene. In the ten compositions, there is a lightness with which Tara Fuki incorporate their cellos into the gurgling potion of tones let out by mysterious instruments such as Swiss hangs, Indian tabla, and Pakistani kanjira. The power of artistic expression of Tara Fuki dwells in their utterly natural vocal spontaneity and perfect coordination based on mutual complementation. Dorota’s mighty and velvet dark alto underlined by Andrea’s frail soprano is responsible for the unique hues and nuances. Polish lyrics (mainly written by D. Barová), inspired by personal relationships and intimate conversations between two people, present a powerful testimony.
The songs originated gradually on travels, during breaks between concerts, and were most intensely worked on during the heat of the summer of 2006. They were recorded before the end of the year in the Prague studio of Petr Pinos. The producer and sound director is Aleš Hyvnar (Al-Yaman), who discreetly wrapped the remarkable music world of Tara Fuki in the spices of a very contemporary dimension. The preparation of the new album took longer this time that it was with the previous ones due to the fact that Andrea Konstankiewicz has moved to France for good.
