India Currents - Dec/Jan 1995:
Instruments of Devotion is a collection of instrumental interpretations of devotional music from India, produced at the end of Emam's stay in India on an AIIS grant. The CD was recorded live in a studio in Delhi (April/93) direct to digital, with no overdubs. On this album he, and an ensemble of classically trained musicians (see ad for names) improvise on kirtan melodies in a light classical style. The recording draws on devotional melodies learned by Emam over the past seventeen years at the ashram of Babaji, in the Himalayan foothills. This ensemble will delight you with their unique instrumental presentation of vocal music. Absolutely refreshing and joyful!
