This one was a nice surprise. I expected it to be a collection of Indian music, and it is in a way, but it’s mostly a serene and highly creative jazz approach to Chinmoy’s music. There’s no sitar. Faerman’s vocals are polished and elegant. Hendrik Meurkens sits in on harmonica. This one’s worth some repeated listenings to let it soak in. Well worth seeking out.
