The Path Beyond by Tim Rayborn Tim Rayborn : The Path Beyond.
 Medieval and middle eastern music.

"Music from the edges of Islamic civilization," is how the incredibly talented multi-instrumentalist Tim Rayborn describes The Path Beyond, an assortment of Jewish, Christian, and Islamic instrumental music from medieval Spain, North Africa, Turkey, Iran, and the Balkans. This decidedly pre-modern has a gloriously acoustic sound. Tim, and will transport you not only to other worlds, but to another time within those worlds. Tim is known for his exceptionally great production values and attention to detail, so his music has this clean yet warm, sensual sound that falls very gracefully on the ears. Five of these songs are of historical and traditional origin, while the others are improvisations or compositions that "reflect the spirit of ancient heritage." Simply great. Pick it up today.
