Review by Ken Mueller

The Baghdad Ensemble's album Music from Mesopotamia is a wonderful tribute to the rich cultural heritage of this ancient region. The album features a diverse range of traditional Mesopotamian instruments such as the oud, qanun, and ney, as well as percussion instruments like the dumbek and riq. The musicians' skillful playing and emotive performances transport the listener to the ancient world of Mesopotamia, evoking images of bustling markets, majestic temples, and desert landscapes.

The album features a mix of traditional songs and original compositions, all of which showcase the ensemble's mastery of the Mesopotamian musical tradition. The haunting melodies and intricate rhythms of tracks like "The Gazelle," "In My Heart," and "The River" are sure to captivate listeners and transport them to another time and place.
