Description
With his first new album in over three years, world music legend Hamza El Din returns at last with seven new masterworks. Dedicated to Toshka, the village of his birth flooded three decades ago by the Aswan High Dam project, A Wish is Hamza's prayer for the resurrection of his home. Joined here by Kronos Quartet cellist Joan Jeanrenaud, composer and pianist W.A. Mathieu, Jordanian percussionist Hani Naser, Japanese diva Shizuru Ohtaka, and others, Hamza's mastery of the oud is as undeniable as ever. In his longing for home, he has kept the voice of his village alive with the virtuosity of his playing – spawning a new tradition for the musical heritage of all humanity.
