Description:
This is the third collaborative album by Albanian vocalist Elina Duni and British guitarist Rob Luft—contemporary jazz singers who incorporate diverse genres, languages, and cultural backgrounds while powerfully expressing their unique identities.
While their previous albums, *Lost Ships* and *A Time to Remember*, featured the quartet they co-lead, this album brings the core duo to the forefront. The program begins with Irving Berlin’s title track and concludes with Ornette Coleman’s “Lonely Woman.” Along the way, it features original compositions by Duni and Luft, traditional music from Kosovo, a lullaby penned by the Persian singer Mahsa Vahdat, ballads by Italian singer-songwriter Pino Daniele, the art song “Les Berceaux” by French composer Gabriel Fauré, and themes from film scores by Japan’s Shigeru Umebayashi and Poland’s Krzysztof Komeda.
“Our duo, this project, is a musical journey,” says Elina. “To bridge the gaps between people through different styles and languages.” Denis’s witty expressiveness as a singer harmonizes beautifully with Luft’s exceptional playing technique. As a guitarist, Luft moves seamlessly between various musical styles, gently enveloping the melodies, highlighting the emotions embedded in the lyrics, and enhancing the atmosphere of the songs. *Reaching for the Moon* was recorded in June 2025 at Studio La Buissonne in southern France. Produced by Manfred Eicher, the album is set to be released just as Elina Duni and Rob Luft embark on a European tour that includes concerts in Italy and Germany.
