Customer Reviews:

Real musicians, real instruments - REAL BEAUTY!.......2002-05-11

If you're into REAL world music (as opposed to synthesized electronica), this is a great find. Voices of Forgotten Worlds offers a peek into other worldviews and cultures in danger of extinction - thanks to the all-powerful globalizing influences of television, [corporations]. Grab it while you can; you won't be dissappointed!

Fascinating and fun!.......1999-02-16

The book that accompanies the CD is superbly produced with high quality color pictures, notes about the artists, descriptions of the culture, and remarks about the recording process for each track. As a one-purchase introduction to the music of indigenous peoples, it can't be beat. But be careful--after reading about and listening to this music, you may find yourself wanting to purchase lots more music you only get to sample here.
