Captivating songs of muezzins, Balinese gamelan, bewitching Indian ragas and other musical traditions of the Orient have been a constant source of wonderment and inspiration for western composers. From the first Baroque turquoiseries to modern musical fusions, via the vivid mode of Orientalism in the Romantic era, this collection invites you on a long journey to the East, as experienced and fantasized by European composers. This collection features such great performers as Fatma Said, Martin James Bartlett, André Previn and Mady Mesplé.
