Available 5th May 2023.

The Sky Is the Same Colour Everywhere is a spiritual meditation - best listened to in one sitting - by two master musicians and culture bearers of centuries-old musical traditions sharing modes based on Persian and Malian repertoires on kamancheh (spike fiddle) and kora (harp/lute).

Kayhan Kalhor and Toumani Diabaté are both well-known soloists in their own right, but this duo recording is something special taking us on an improvisational musical journey into new landscapes. “It’s like this music was already there waiting for us,” says Toumani. “And it’s like the two of us knew each other before - in another life.”

Kayhan Kalhor, from Iran, is the leading player of the kamancheh, the Persian spike fiddle. Played kneeling down, Kayhan says it’s “like riding a wild horse”. It has four strings played with a short bow. He’s collaborated with Yo-Yo Ma’s Silk Road Ensemble, Kronos Quartet, Shujaat Khan, Erdal Erzincan, the Rembrandt Trio and many others. Toumani Diabaté, from Mali, is likewise the leading player of the West African kora, a 21-string harp-lute and a sublime creation of gourd, cow skin and fishing line. He’s won three Grammys and recorded with Ballaké Sissoko, Taj Mahal, Ali Farka Touré, Björk and the London Symphony Orchestra. This is Kayhan’s first collaboration with an African musician. “The qualities of minimalism and trance that I like in Persian music are also there in Toumani’s,” says Kayhan. “That’s how I like to think and tell a story. That quality in African music has always attracted me and I think Toumani does that really well.”

The idea for the duo came from Michael Dreyer, director of the Morgenland Festival in Osnabrück, Germany where Kayhan had frequently played in several other collaborations. The preparation was minimal, not even a discussion about scales or structure, but just a sound check in which they “checked certain things” and then simply played about 90 minutes of music.

That performance was in September 2016 and they followed it with a short European tour to a few other venues, although Kayhan says the shape of the piece didn’t really change. They recorded it in Paris after the final concert in Brussels.

Absolutly beautiful
I was really impressed after putting it together. I wanted something that was taller than I at 5'5" and got just that. The colors are beautiful and it matches my floors and parts of my walls. Can't wait to put things on it.

Less mess, more style!
Color: Gold, Color: Gold
So happy with this purchase! I was a tiny bit wary buying an item without any reviews yet, however I saw that the other caddies from this brand all had many positive reviews and seemed to be good quality. The diatomaceous earth base of this caddy elevated this option to me, so I went for it. I've had it out for a few days and am extremely happy that I went with this option! It absorbs water super quickly, so there are no more rings and residue left on the top of my sink, and it makes my countertop look that much more cute and put-together. Heads up it is a little deep compared to some other trays/caddies; I knew this ahead of time so planned to put it directly to the side of my sink so that it did not overlap. I think the size is worth it, since it accommodates about 2 soap products and has plenty of adjustable room for bottle brushes, sponges, drain stoppers, and whatever other items you need. Overall, I highly recommend!

Sturdy and does the job well.
Color: Black
Very stable. Have a narrow ledge on my sink and it balances great without falling. Holds all my sponges and brushes and dish soap. Hasn’t rusted and I’ve had it for a while now. Looks nice on my sink. Keeps my counters dry and my sponges mold free.

Buy it you'll love it. You'll realize that you really needed it
Color: Black
Size is perfect for rag, scrubber sponges soap. It's very sturdy love that the block on bottom dryies up all the liquid it's absolutely amazing. It's very convenient, love the way you can organize everything. I'm the kind of person I have to have everything organized that's the way I grew up. I have not seen any signs of rust no where. Highly recommend. It is very very nice.

Funcional but smaller than I thought
Color: B-silver
I liked it and it replaces something around the kitchen sink that was constantly dripping liquid soap dish into the sink making a mess! This new organizes items much better. It's smaller than I envisioned and wish it came with it's own soap bottles dispensers but I found two small ones placing them side by side and it works. Did not use the metal divider. I cannot tell yet the drying speed of the sliding out stone. It's functional at keeping everything hands reach and organized around the kitchen sink.
