"7 Spirituelle Lieder" by Peter Bayreuther (Spiritual/World artist from Germany)

"7 Spirituelle Lieder" by Peter Bayreuther is a very intriguing collection of spiritual tunes in honor of the Indian Bhajan tradition. These songs have a strong chant-like quality to their composition. "Göttlich" is very conducive to the sing-along energy found throughout this CD, and features a strong chorus of male and female vocals with a backdrop of interesting world instrumentation. In listening to "IchBinStark," one can feel Peter's joyous energy and the strong percussive groove of this track. Adding to the cultural appeal of this album is the diverse percussive instruments and drum arrangements. Vocally, the chorus-like chants are very spiritual and transcendental. Moreover, the musical backdrops of these tunes are very relaxing and reflect interesting compositions of native instruments. Fans of world music will enjoy this eclectic fusion of cultures.
