about

Cristian’s debut album Anima Mundi, released in February 2016, draws from a palette of many different traditions. In it, Cristian presents 8 original compositions and 3 covers with the help of an all-star cast of musicians: Yana Hristova (flute), Daniel Brown (bass), Emmanuel Trifilio (bandoneon), Joe McCarthy (drums), Bruno Lucini (percussion), Lynn Veronneau (guest vocals), Victor Provost (steel pan), Haroon Alam (tablas), and Kevin Elam (low whistle and back up vocals).

"Anima Mundi is an impressive set by Cristian Perez, taking the listener on a variety of different musical journeys. This colorful program is well worth exploring.”
(Scott Yanow - Jazz journalist/historian)

Anima Mundi [Latin for "Soul of the World"] is a term used by the ancients to denote the apparent universal force that binds together the natural world and its diverse components. The pieces in this album depict this imaginative vision by bringing together disparate members of Anima Mundi and portraying them in unorthodox settings, and reflect the diversity and dynamism of both nature and music.
