Shusha

'Persian Love Songs
and Mystic Chants'

Musicians:
Shusha - voice
Duncan Lamont - flute
Behboudi - zarb

Label - Lyrichord, USA

'Maurice Rosenbaum writes that Shusha possesses "the dark beauty of Persia and a voice to match." This recording, dedicated entirely to her Persian roots, captures a performance of exquisitely beautiful songs of love, betrothal, separation and mystical wisdom, sung in the intimate and sensitive style that has made Shusha an internationally known performer.

The songs of an ancient and noble civilization; the bonding of thousands of shared visions. Bask in the richness of the flute and zarb accompaniment and immerse yourself in the cool, soothing timbre of Shusha's voice.'
