5 out of 5 stars A wonderful way to spend an hour without leaving your house........2007-02-20

This is truly a delightful cd. The cd description tells the listener that Eda Zari wanted to portray a number of different styles. This is a big challenge for one cd and in my opinion often fails. Eda Zari actually succeeds at this and the result is a wonderful hour of music with a gifted singer. I hope to hear more of Eda Zari.

5 out of 5 stars Albanian Folk-Jazz.......2003-11-07

This CD is brilliant. If you're not familiar with Albanian folk, this would be a great introduction, and if you already are a fan, even better. This album combines many elements of Albanian folk including clarinet, Albanian traditional instruments and some Albanian polyphony of the legendary musicians of "Family Lela De Permet" with jazz piano, drums, contrabass, darbouka percussion, etc. All this accompanies the beautiful voice of Eda Zari (some backup singers too). Lots of jazz solos, folk takeovers, and amplitudes. Each song is very rich in elements, and the musicians are impeccable.

Certain songs are very upbeat and effervescent, others melancholic, profound and mesmerizing. Eda and others' singing is beautiful with the little "Albanian slur" -- elongation and descension. Those who know Albanian music will know what I'm talking about.

My favorite songs are: Amazing Age, Zanat, Tribute to "ýobani", Malbi, Prelude to Albanian Nature, and "Kaba" never in cage.

I highly recommend this CD. Most will just love all the CD, as I do, and others will definitely like at least some songs.

I love this music!

This is the little description found on the cd: "Eda Zari--The charismatic voice from Albania with songs full of passion, desire, rhythm and vitality."
