« Naïssam Jalal opens the transparent door that leads to the space within by holding onto the immaterial thread of music. Eight pieces channeled by the pure breath of the flute and the nay, enveloped in celestial songs, traversed by hypnotic rhythms, with the almost supernatural complicity of Leonardo Montana, Claude Tchamitchian and Hamid Drake. This fifth album is his Love Supreme. » – Jazz Mag ****
