This compilation album features tracks from 13 different prior Saydisc albums, and takes the listener on an auditory journey around the globe. These exotic sounds unite far-flung communities and cultures of the world through the common thread of music. In the Chinese Village Song for Bamboo Flute, performed by the Jing Ying Ensemble, we hear the bamboo flute, also known as the di-zi, which carries the same associations as it's Western counterpart, but is more piercing in timbre. World percussionist Joji Hirota dreams up an exotic, hot, and humid Amazonian scene with the evocative composition, "Amazon Rain Forest Dream." The ensemble The Burning Bush presents "Israeli Chassidic Melody 10," which comes from the repertoire of the Klezmer. Other highlights include performances of Carribean steel pan music, a song with voice and Tibetan singing bowls performed by Alain Presencer, a Turkish Longa, and many more exciting world elements.
