Most tracks feature two drummers and two bass players playing simultaneously, a flute player, a percussionist and Àbáse, himself, on Rhodes and synths, while guests - met during his journeys in Brazil, Ghana and Europe - complemented the composer’s ideas with their own cultural and personal touches. Invocation blends all those experiences smoothly.
