Timple and guitar have their roots in the popular tradition. Over the centuries, the guitar evolved to become a fully autonomous instrument. The technical and organological revolution, together with the new repertoire composed and adapted for the six strings, positioned the chordophone at the level of the rest of the solo instruments. In the case of the timple, its development has been similar, although much later, around the last 50 years.

Given the existing parallelism in the origin and evolution of both instruments, from Dalek Dúo we have elaborated a proposal that, starting from these similarities, contributes to extend the frontiers of the formation. Thus, music ranging from Bach to Piazzolla, through Father Soler or Granados, sound through the 11 strings of the timple and the guitar, in a journey through the musical academicism nourished by original adaptations that explore unknown limits so far in the small canary instrument. In our journey we could not leave out popular music, which finds a place in the repertoire through Celso Machado. The icing on the cake of the project is the newly created music, reflected in Sandstorm, an unpublished composition in avant-garde language commissioned to Fran Yanes. Thus, once again hand in hand, timple and guitar will walk their popular and historical paths, but with the contribution of a new prism, innovative in this format.

This album has been awarded the prestigious Melómano de Oro and was a semifinalist at the MIN Awards.
