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.

Might stain certain fabrics?
Size: 6.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Lotion (SPF 50)
Great product, works well. My only complaint is I believe it might have stained my white, UV blocking running top. After the first use there was yellowing all long the neckline and sleeves where I either accidentally got it on the shirt or sweating transferred it on. I’ve never had this problem before and can’t 100% be sure the lotion itself is to blame but it is the only thing that changed from other times I ran in that top. I haven’t noticed this problem with other tops so I’m not sure if it was the material itself or the color that reacted. Still going to give it 5 stars because I like the product.

My favorite.
Size: 6.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Lotion (SPF 50)
I love this stuff. It's non-comedogenic, so it doesn't break me out. I've noticed a considerable difference in my acne scars after using it for a couple weeks. It is a little greasy and there's a very slight white cast, but I don't mind because I just let it dry and then put some powder over the top. Plus, the cast is easy to rub in and makes my skin tone look more balanced (I am white, though). Hope this helps!

Good sunblock
Size: 6.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Lotion (SPF 50)
This is my go-to sunblock reconnect by my dermatologist. It has a good skin feel, and seems to do the job required.

Perfect protection for daily use
Size: 6.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Lotion (SPF 50)
This is my go-to sunscreen for my daily use. I have stuck to a strict skin care routine and at the end, it’s extremely important to have a sunscreen to seal the deal. And this does just that. It doesn’t leave that nasty white streaks from the sunscreen and goes on very nicely. Out of my months of using this I have never been uncomfortable with it and the smell is very refreshing unlike other brands of sunscreen. Most importantly, this doesn’t feel greasy or overly slick. Perfect balance.

Great
Size: 6.76 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Lotion (SPF 50)
While it is a bit thick, that can be great for sweaty summer activities (also it's purpose)! It does not leave a white cast (on me, though I am pale, I have experienced this with other sunscreens) and smells okay, not great but like a sunscreen would be expected to. It's not a super strong scent and does not burn my eyes. Sits good under my makeup as well.
