Details : Triloka Records 0704 6912-041190-2\n\n\n\nContinues the Trance Planet series' commitment to the finest and most\nunusual new international music. This latest collection features the\nextraordinary Russian singer, Slava, the serene strumming of Malang\nCissoho's kora, the catch groove of Algeria's Rachid Taha, the\nvirtuosity of Ali Akbar Khan, and the deep, soulful music of the great\nArmenian Musician, Djivan Gasparyan, These and the other performers\nonce again demonstrate Music's capacity as a sublime elixir, a\nuniversal language cutting through cultural differences. The music\nfrom may countries -- Algeria, Mali, Germany, Syria, Mozambique,\nIndia, Israel, to name a few -- and reveals a rich diversity of\nmusical tradition, but in all you can find a common denominator of\nemotional beauty that is the hallmark of all great music. All of\nthese selection have deeply moved me and our radio listership, and I\nwould imagine they will affect you similarly.\n\nTom Schnabel\nProducer, Cafe L.A.\nKCRW, Santa Monica, CA\nJuly, 1996\n
