Recorded with guests including pianist Zoe Rahman, a 20-piece Turkish ensemble and a chamber orchestra integrating western and Arabic styles, Mounqaliba – ‘being in a state of reversal’ in classical Arabic -- builds on the acoustic, orchestral sound of the acclaimed Ana Hina of 2007 with a set of original new songs, evocative interludes, and a limpid, lucid reading of Nick Drake’s The Riverman.
