One of the most touching albums I own. Goes straight to your soul. His score for Keislowski's "Dekalogue" is also amazing.

One of the major Film composers of the last 50 years. So few can fill the voids of sadness with such beauty like he does. His work on "The Straight Story" is also great.

This is a collection of Middle Eastern vocal and instrumental music that hits the soul deeply with truth. [First added to this chart: 03/19/2016]
