5.0 out of 5 stars an audio delight-blend, a taste of home, February 18, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Life Around the World (Audio CD)
Thanks Hassan for this real feast of musical delights. "Life Around the World" shows the maturity of Hassan Hakmoun as world-class music man. The invited musicians, with their own style of vocals and instruments, from different cultures and background blend-in in a perfect harmony, to our delight, with Hassan the gnawi. I particularly enjoyed the great talents of Richard Horowitz playing the ney in Chabakouni 1 ( #5)... This demonstrates a deep musical complicity between Hassan and Richard and also with Adam, Don, Abdul and all the numerous very talented artists from a veriety of different horizons.... Hassan demontrates in this CD that music is indeed a universal language... :) Thanks again

5.0 out of 5 stars en-TRANCED, October 3, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Life Around the World (Audio CD)
I was lucky enough to see Hassan Hakmoun and his little brother perform for a live broadcast as part of Chicago's second annual World Music Festival last week. Although his performance differed from this recording in that the music was pared down to sintir and hand-held percussion, the effect was similar: repetitive (but never tedious) rhythmic ground as a basis for soaring, yearning vocals. Oddly, one western group that came fleetingly to mind was the Grateful Dead in their more contemplative improvisational pieces such as Dark Star--a similar trance-inducing music. I have always loved feeling so transported!
