Music of Silence
After 12 years, during which time I was concentrating on writing a novel more than playing music, I have finally produced a new album, with strong Indian, Spanish, Hebrew, Russian and Armenian influences. In fact there was so much material waiting to come out that it was too much for a single album. 

 

Fragments of Longing

Scattered to the Winds and

Cast Adrift on the Ocean
