Cyminology’s music combines oriental exoticism with the new music from Germany’s capitol to form a unique style of Jazz. Sometimes energetic, sometimes full of far eastern melancholy, Cymin Samawatie and her musical partners paint a musical horizon for their metropolis.

Therefore, Cyminology presents not only a unique musical genre, but also brings to the stage an intercultural view of life. Always presented with great virtuosity in a strictly acoustic setting, this is a flavour of vocal jazz somewhere between “new” jazz and the “old” classical style; an intense musical colour is created to support the mystical Persian Lyrics.

Bobby McFerrin invited her 2003 on stage in Braunschweig (Germany) to sing a vocal remix of Persian poems from the 11th century. This reference from the father of modern Jazz singing shows clearly how talented the German-Iranian singer Cymin Samawatie is. This year the daughter of Iranian emigrants is going to publish her second album “bemun” with her quartet. It succeeds in connecting the fairytale-like language of Persian poetry with first class World Jazz of American and European influence.

In the year 2005 the band released it’s first studio album “per se”. Featured and promoted by Germany’s biggest jazz magazine “JazzThing” the album quickly gained a lot of attention and acclaim from the press and listeners. The fusion of modern vocal jazz and influences from poems and songs from the ancient Persia are the main topic of Cyminology’s music. Strong and rhythmic but at the same time fragile and sensitive – the band can hardly be put into any one category. There’s always a strong groove in the band’s music, even in the quietest moments, and all pieces have a warm, organic, earthy, very special feel which makes the music truly unmistakeable. One critic states: “Cyminology proves that it is possible to glow without exploding”.
