Quote from: relm1 on April 12, 2025, 05:27:38 AMYes, it's definitely a winning combination. Love those arabian scales and the harp is perfect for this. What work is this? I can't figure out the title based on the youtube link.

It is the 3rd suite of "Images" composed by Marcel Tournier- a French harpist/composer. The lovely albums below feature the composition (in solo and quartet versions).

Dear Manabu
Amy Maayami is a very underrated composer and after an avantgarde phase his attempt to make a bridge between arab and jews music folklore is very especially appreciated in this troubled time I hope you will like this piece

Ruth Maayani was his sister and deserved an in-depth presentation
