On his first release in over three years, acclaimed Turkish virtuoso Omar Faruk Tekbilek expands his “Mediterranean sound” beyond political, religious and geographic boundaries. Joined by an all-star cast of music luminaries including Enrique Morente, Arto Tuncboyaciyan, David Darling, Steve Roach and long-time collaborator Brian Keane, Omar Faruk applies his unity-in-diversity approach to a collection of songs colored with traditional Sufi melodies, Middle Eastern flavors and distinct traces of folk and flamenco. The result: a contemporary world music sound that is uplifting and exuberant, intuitive and spiritual.
