Synopsis

Product Description
The theme and content of this recording are clear from its title: "Songs of Wisdom and Love". These are vocal performances that showcase the beauty of Javanese voices, both male and female. Included is a translation of the ancient Javanese texts sung in the fourteen tracks. This should help Western listeners enter a lyrical and cultural universe quite different from their own. This is the ninth volume of this series and is the idea follow-up to the famous Nonesuch Explorer recordings of the '70s. Features a full color booklet with notes in English by the Javanese music expert Sumarsam.
