Review

A highly remarkable production which combines thye musical styles of the East and West, cast in captivating sounds of exceptional beauty. Here lie stories in music from the fabled lands behind the sunrise that call upon us to explore a journey and a cultural nature.

Chinmaya Dunster plays guide on this excursion, where the strange meets familiar. A varied selection of exotic, inspiring and refreshing music with an eastern charm.

Hear unusual melodies played on oriental instruments, enriched with western harmonies on keyboard, harp, violin, backed by spellbinding rhythms on eastern hand drums. Most are orginal Indian instruments played traditionally like the Sarod, Santoor, bamboo flute and tabla. the violin, harp and guitar were applied to provide the neccessary harmonious "western" background to help support the "western" listener in the better understanding of exotic, melodic and rhythmic expressions of the orient.

Each of the 6 pieces on this album is a little story in the universal language everbody is familiar with and can easily relate to.
