Synopsis

Album Details
With a Background in Classical Music and a Clear Understanding of Western Composition, Khalife Fuses the Silky, Droning Melodies of Middle-eastern Music with Shorter Western Song Structures. When in Many Cases Music from the Middle East Might Sound F Ormless to the Untrained Ear, Khalife Creates a Brilliant and Joyous Fusion, Always Evoking the Traditional Sounds of his Native Lebanon Yet Very Melodic and Accessible.

Anthem of Life
Fawwaz Abu Ghazalah | Amman, Jordan | 02/25/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Anthem of Bread and Roses must be among the most moving parts of this CD. It describes the relationship between oneself and the 'other'. Marcel does it again!"
