ISSA BOULOS - Being Peace [New CD]

Being peace, when faces become visible, and voices aretapped with the drums of their transformations. Being peace, when manifestations of the inner worldrelentlessly attempt to travel to the familiar and pursue beauty and itscontradiction. For that leap towards the light, prisoners of time, webecome mirrors of gardens, and love. This recording features Issa Boulos singing his mostintimate vocal works while accompanying himself on the ‘Ud (oud).
