Circles in a Square Society is the sixth album by the jazz/world music trio Boi Akih, released in 2012.[1]

After extensive listening sessions with classic rock records and lengthy discussions about songs with a timeless quality, Brouer and Akihary decided to incorporate some of their favorite selections into an album that includes a musical commentary on the era from which the songs came.

Reception

The album was met with a great deal of positive critical reception in Europe and the music was showcased live at Bimhuis, and on World Radio6. Saskia Törnqvist gave the album a 4 star out of 5 rating in the Parool.[2] Dutch Newspaper De Volkskrant published a 5 star rating by Frank van Herk.
