Music reviews of The Breeze at Dawn: Poems of Rumi in Song

Music Review: A Haunting Breeze
Rating: 5 Stars

The selections chosen from Coleman Barks' lyrical translations open the heart and mind, letting the spirit soar along with that of Rumi himself. All are invited: "Come, come, whoever you are," he sings. "Ours is not a caravan of despair. Though you have broken your vows / A thousand times/ Come, come again, come!" What a wonderful message for our time, when so many of us suffer from guilt and despair. The more I listen to these songs the more the deep meaning of the lyrics emerge from behind the beautiful music. I would recommend this cd as a gift, a gift to oneself, to someone close or to any friend who needs some spiritual solace.

I hope that soon we will hear of more music being created by those who worked to hard to bring this to us. Not only are they fine musicians, but they also understand our times and what can bring us peace.
