CD ReviewsBeautiful Renditions Mischa M. Rutenberg | San Francisco, CA United States | 03/26/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "I have been very interested to hear the variety of interpretations various Western artists have used to sing the illuminating words of the perfect poet... Rumi. I am very impressed with quite a few of the songs on this CD. I have heard several versions of the poem "The Field". None convey the meaning of the words more beautifully than the version found on this CD. The same can be said of several other familiar poems sung in this collection. As a fellow musician sailing similar waters I am delighted by Jeff's work. I recommend this collection highly."
