Album Review
Decca
Reviewed 2010-02-27
This American/Dutch singer performs the music of Iran. She has a lovely, warm voice that conveys emotion well. The tracks are mostly gentle and lyrical with a sense of longing. In Persian and Azeri.

*1. Melodic and dramatic. Midtempo w/lush strings & percussion.
2. Slow and gentle w/a rich arrangement & soaring vocals.
*3. Upbeat w/rich percussion and a sense of drama.
4. Quiet, dramatic solo violin. Prelude to #5.
*5. Slow and sad, a great showcase for her beautiful voice. Longing.
6. Gently bright mid/upbeat w/a sweet melody.
*7. More contemporary w/a solid beat & good energy.
8. Relaxed midtempo & lyrical w/rich orchestration.
*9. Upbeat, sharp percussion a happy song w/bright energy.
10. Slow & full of longing song of homeland. Really beautiful.
