The Path Beyond by Tim Rayborn

Description

Brand new. Opened only to make sound clips.

The music on this recording comes from many regions that historically had contact with the Arabic and Islamic world, and often were Muslim themselves, especially in the medieval and Ottoman periods.

Five songs are of historical and traditional origin, while the others are improvisations of compositions that reflect the spirit of that same ancient heritage. Some of the original pieces were composed first, while others were improvised during recording, capturing music the moment it was created. The album’s title refers to both the “path beyond” the Arabic geographical center of Islamic culture and influence to these other lands, as well as “beyond” in the spiritual sense of leaving the mundane path of everyday life to travel they mystic path.
