5 out of 5 stars Out of this World Music - Out of this World Price   January 7, 2004

Do not be fooled by the low cost - this is outstanding world/international music offered by Times Square, to attract a larger listening audience to this genre of music. This CD will do just that!

It is the highly talented artists on this CD which got my attention: Esma, Macedonian Queen of Gypsies & Saban Bajramovic the world-famous gypsy vocalist from Serbia, plus the group known as "Mostar Sevdah Reunion". These musicians and singers gathered together during the war in Bosnia & Hezegovina to create a sense of hope and life, when just the opposite was occuring in their homeland. Another world-reknown vocal talent on this CD hails from the Balkans, Yanka Rupkina. She was a member of the "Mysterious Voices of Bulgaria" female chorus.

Music from Peru, Argentina, Surinam, and Portugal is also found on this eclectic album. I like all the music but it was the Balkan artists who were the main draw ... This compilation definitely influenced me to buy more CDs by these highly talented musical & vocal artists.

If you are interested in listening to "music of the world" but unsure whether you will like it. Your best option is finding a low-cost CD like this one to hear different musical styles. This CD by Times Square is one of the best compliations which meets this criteria. Few will regret spending their money once they hear the music ... Erika Borsos (erikab93)

I have only heard one song from this album. Last night I was listening to the radio and stopped working to hear Bulgarian, Yanka Rupkina's beautiful,manly voice sing "It's raining hard outside".
