A curious recording that didn't quite hit the mark for me
Hugh Ritchey | Boston MA | 04/15/2009
(2 out of 5 stars)

"Certainly not my favorite Munir Bashir recording, this CD starts off very promising but falls short of what it could have achieved with the same material. The production is a little bizarre: it sounds like an ensemble recorded some really deep, rich performances in a small room with lots of reverb added later, then Munir Bashir came in and laid an oud solo on top - and the engineer grabbed the faders on the board and yanked down the ensemble to make room for his subtle, textural playing, then cranked 'em back up when the solo was done. Very odd. Could have been much better with an improved approach to the recording."
