T'ika

T’ika (‘Flower’ in Quechua language) is an acoustic duo consisting in Haigiong Deng (China- zheng) and Carlos Odria (Peru - guitar). The duo performs original compositions inspired in the natural sceneries of the state of Florida (US). Through a process that involves deep contemplation, reflection, and emotional interpretation of the colors, textures, vibrations, and movements that shape Florida’s landscape, the T’ika Duo elaborates sonic narratives that are also influenced by the various traditional musics of China and South America. This is their first collaboration recorded in the year 2013 by Derek Jones at the Florida State University's College of Music.
