Luminescent

Hailing from Montreal (Canada), Luminescent formed in 2015, driven by the desire to unite two instruments that complement each other in the most exceptional way: the harp and the handpan.

Luminescent stands apart with a sound that's as rare as it is captivating - the duo seamlessly weaves contemporary nuances of minimalism and jazz with echoes of ancient musical traditions such as râgas and gamelan. The result is a harmonious fusion of rhythmic intricacies and flowing melodies, enveloped in lush resonances that transport listeners to ethereal realms. Beyond the core harp-handpan duo, kalimba, euphone, and tongue drums add layers of texture and depth to their performances.

With their unprecedented harp and handpan collaboration, palpable synergy on stage and audacious creativity, Luminescent carves a unique path in today’s musical scenery, their music evoking resonance that lingers long after the notes fade.
