It is an organic blend of many faith traditions from Buddhist, Jewish, Christian and Islam. Guests on the cd include Rev. Noriaki Ito, Rabbi Naomi Levy (the 50th most influential Rabbi in America!) and The Kominas. Songs include &quot;Welcome Song&quot; a Buddhist chant over a Native American drumming, a Jewish-Muslim song called &quot;Oneness of God&quot;; a Christian song I wrote called &quot;Kyrie Eleison&quot;. &quot;My Favorite Passages&quot; is an ensemble of translations of my favorite passages from the Quran set to music with a gospel vocal arrangement. This CD is a great way of reminding each other of our spiritual/religious roots. A great gift for yourself and for others in this holiday season. Thank you for helping me spread the word of peace!Mon, 06 Oct 2008 16:24:01 -0500http://ani.calabashmusic.com/#album_42800<img src='http://files.calabashmusic.com/images/40775/anicd.jpg'>This project is a personal one. Hopefully this album will sharpen the focus for Muslims to seek out the real Quranic teachings, The Middle Path. The path against discrimination, against violence, against war. And hopefully this project will show the world that there is an alternative face to Islam other than the stereotyped cast which is in itself discriminating.Mon, 06 Oct 2008 16:24:01 -0500http://ani.calabashmusic.com/#album_40775
