5.0 out of 5 stars ZaZa's songs are treasures to our world!, October 3, 1999

By A Customer

A few years ago ZaZa and I were inspired to bring to life the story of Scheherazade. Out of this poignant story came the most soul stirring songs, in particular 'Only You'. Her songs are treasures to our world, mother earth and outerline extendencies of the universe. If you love the serenity of Enya, you will adore the majesty of ZaZa.

5.0 out of 5 stars A VERY GOOD VOICE, April 24, 1999

By A Customer

This CD sings the stories of Nights One And A Thousand (it has a story to tell), the style is very interesting because it has a touch of traditional middle eastern sounds.
