This little clip lets you hear Emily Lau singing. Her voice was so beautiful. And I loved the vielle (the medieval violin) that Shula is playing. It sounds so much nicer than a modern violin. She said that's because the back is flat so it isn't as shrill.
I had dinner with Emily and Shula and Al last night, and I enjoyed talking to them so much, but I sort of feel like they think I'm retarded. Anyway, the video is not as good as they were in life.

Istanpitta again
OK, this little clip is just a section from a longer piece, but I love the way I can hear Celtic AND Sufi music in this!
Istanpitta in Atlanta
I begin to understand. This is music from Jewish, Arab, and Celts from Gaul. That's why contemporary Celtic music sounds like Sufi music to me! It all mixed together in 13th century Iberia! Rock and Roll. I get it now.
