Darjeeling Infinite

This CD opens with the spine-tingling sound of a Mongolian Long Song... Sharav provides some glorious voicings, [and] this 11-minute work sets out the Silk Road Project's fertile agenda admirably. Ganbaatar Khongorzul's vocals and the tones Ma draws from the morin huur often merge eerily and effectively.
