MERU is a World Music project born from deep Portuguese Soul and Consciousness and open to the world. Our music is a journey that starts and ends in Portugal and goes through all continents, many countries, traditions and musical styles. We bring together instruments from various eras and ethnicities in a project of world and ambient music with multicultural characteristics.
Our live performance is an imaginary and timeless journey, created by instruments that manifest, through the musicians, the sound from different cultures, traditions and musical styles, in a voyage around the world, From Africa To Asia, Oceania and the Americas, always with Portugal as the base home and inspiration.
Featuring the Sitar, the traditional Indian instrument, the Portuguese Guitar from the Fado tradicional national song, the nGoni, stringed harp from West Africa, the Didgeridoo from Australian Aboriginal origins (oldest wind instrument of Humanity) and the Handpan, an harmonic percussion instrument created in the XXI century with current metallurgical techniques and also several traditional percussion instruments like the Djembé, Calabassa, Adufe (portuguses framedrum), cymbals and rainsticks.
