Tahina Rahary Malagasy Roots

The project emerges from Tahina’s need to highlight the varieties of influences acquired throughout his musical activity, both in music writing and his guitar technique. It took some years of experimentation, study, research and all the persistence to get the desired results. And it all comes together in the form of the Malagasy Roots, which in its deepest essence aims to merge all the ingredients of many musical styles - having Malagasy music and its peculiar rhythm and melodies as the fundamental basis, going through Portuguese music and Jazz, which is one of the main influences on Tahina training as a musician.
