Jazz meets Orient. A truly touching and intensive production, in which the singing voice of Dhafer Youssef brings her incredible extent before all in the head voices Heights heard. Partly deeply sad and touching songs like "Ya Hobb" leave something one, to be able to understand the lyrics. I've heard the album over and over again and feel it is a very unusual and enriching production. The "classic" trio format makes the connection to our familiar sound space, without the vote to take their ethnic peculiarity and originality. It's almost a spiritual experience to listen to this album, I feel it is a showpiece of world music and cultural openness.
