Various Artists - Sufi Soul

2CD compilation of Sufi music, more than 140 minutes of music from Tadzhikistan, Uzbekhistan, Turkey, Syria, Afghanistan, Morocco, Iran, Egypt, Senegal, Kurdistan, Baluchistan and Pakistan.

'Sufi Soul' has been created in close collaboration with Sufi experts Jean During and Peter Pannke. It is one of the first to offer a complete cross-section of some of the most powerful Sufi music, all the way from Morocco to South-East Asia. The variety of forms presented here range from the delicately plaintive voice of Munadjat Yultichieva from Tashkent to the hypnotic staccati of the sorud - a stringed instrument used in the Desert of Baluchistan to heal those possessed by spirits.
