Notes and Editorial Reviews
Shaykh Hamza Shahhur, the great munshid of Damascus, sings the praises of divine love and God's prophet muhammed in sublime, deep tones, whilst the musicians of the Al-Kindi reply to him, alternating subtle flouroshes and arabesques with refined preludes. This is how a real session of Sama proceeds - It is a truly spiritual concert, a dialogue with the angles, where the only distraction from our state of bliss is the rustling of the dervishes'robes.
