CD ReviewsNative cultures celebrated where their heartbeats overlap. Alison Andrews | Manhattan | 12/23/1999 (5 out of 5 stars) "Indigineous music is hard to listen to sometimes because it is, by definition, specific to a native culture. Imagine, then, blending two radically different cultures' music together. Irish and Tibetan. Hopi and Polish. The combinations are bizarre. But the effect is a musical education of the best kind: With each song, I hear something more than just sound... I hear the celebration of diversity. None of that "he doesn't love me" junk lyrics -- this music captures the heartbeat of cultures. The Anglo-centrism of American music is ended. The world is merging, and this music gives us a clue to how beautiful it can be." Vibrant world fusion Terry Dolorosa | Concord, CA USA | 12/19/2007 (4 out of 5 stars) "Superbly conceived and vibrant. All God's children contribute. Everything from Norwegians a capella through Afro-Latin and German techno to.... gulp.... Tibetan throat music. The world at your feet... er... ears."
