Codona was an international trio composed of Don Cherry, Collin Walcott and Naná Vasconcelos, best known for a series of ECM recordings that blend jazz improvisation with non-Western instruments and textures.

Core members: Don Cherry, Collin Walcott, Naná Vasconcelos. Recorded and released on the ECM label; produced three principal studio albums commonly referred to as a trilogy.

DeBaser hosts a poetic, highly positive review celebrating Codona's synthesis of global sounds and improvisation. The reviewer frames the trio as musical alchemists and highlights three essential albums. The writing is descriptive, visionary and recommends rediscovery.

For:Listeners of world music, avant-garde jazz, ECM followers and curious listeners interested in cross-cultural instrumental fusion.

 “The art of hermetic alchemy, contrary to what is believed, turns towards the mental plane and not the material one, to the transposition of mental waves into other kinds of vibrations and not to the transmutation of a metal into another.”
