CD Reviews

Superb Rendition of this Original Musical Score

Monica Gullickson | Wisconsin USA | 04/04/2006

(5 out of 5 stars)

"A superb album of music from the original stage musical Sita Ram, sung by an amazing group of up and coming young adults. Highlights include Om Shanti, with melodious chants and melow hindi rap; Sita Ram a wedding song soring to amazing heights in a beautiful ensemble song with amazing riffs; and the be-boppy Rama's Back. For the balad lovers there's i can save the world for you, let me be fire...and even some south asian calyspo sounding tunes like a funky monkey song to hanuman. Just wonderful, I really enjoy listening to this one."
