The new project of the young composer from Germany, Vahid Matejko continues in many respects the line planned by his first album "Come Together". The main theme of Vahid's work remains the synthesis of musical cultures of the peoples of the world.The synthesis of such different musical forms as jazz, modern academic music and world music, and in the new project also the synthesis of the possibilities of the big band and the symphonic orchestra. Already the starting composition " Mandiba Wata" allows to feel it completely.
Besides the undoubted musical merits of "Light of Unity", the fantastic energy of its creator hits the album, who not only arranged and wrote the music, but also created, recorded and mixed the generous project himself. His music knows no denominational and national borders. There is no doubt that the "light of unity" has become brighter on the musical horizon through his efforts.
