Just a Taste

Musical artists who participated in the Soundtrack project. It was a privilege and joy to work with these talented musicians and friends.
Mary, it’s so beautiful, never had a chance to hear these recording before ! I could listen to the kora all day long. Is that you playing the flute in the Revelation 22 recording?
Not me on the flute. That’s the Faissal – on the bamboo flute. I played on a few tracks, but not on any of the ones I posted.
