Melos: Mediterranean Songs on CD

The music on the Al Kindi Ensemble's set entitled the Aleppian Music Room is a mysterious and pure distillation of centuries of tradition, clothed in curiously modern form. Recorded beneath the dome of a small palace in Aleppo, at the crossroads of the famous silk routes, the group presents an eternal dialogue, questioning each other, moving apart, converging, then fading away so as to let the voices of silence ring out.
