Her Song, Exotic Voices of Women from Around the World
Shanachie

By Josef Woodard

Her Song, Exotic Voices of Women from Around the World (Shanachie 64077; 57:03) takes a similar eclectic tack, opening with a tune from Isreali singer Ofra Haza and closing with a slightly new age-ish collaboration between Indian Nada Shakti and Bruce Becvar. Along the way, we hear music from Norwegian Kirsten Braten Berg, Hungarian Iren Lovasz, Native American Pure Fe, and the celtic Talitha MacKenzie, from the group Mouth Music.
