notes

Instrumental musical impressions of the middle eastern landscapes, and ambiences from the marketplaces and oriental bazaars, to the resonant beauty of big cathedral acoustics. These original compositions of Richard Anstey contain a unique blend of ethnic middle eastern instruments played authentically by oriental musicians in a modern fusion with a massive 80 voice London choir, Gregorian men's choir, a boys choir, acoustic and electronic western instruments. Exotic oriental lutes: oud, saz, yali tambur, psaltry, zither and guitar. Ethnic percussion instruments of metal, clay and skin: darbuka, riq, tanake, dumbek, daf, sagat, tabla, bendir, duvul and tof Miriam. Ancient flutes: ney, shepherd's flute and modern bass flute, plus the traditional fiddle, Jew's harp and rams horn shofar.
