"Sounds of Others is a collection of compositions written by Arvo Part and Goldmund (aka Keith Kenniff) and arranged/adapted by Ron Tucker for ensemble, et al.
Ensemble, et al. is a Brooklyn-based pseudo-classical percussion ensemble that combines elements of classicism and modernism employing a simple, intimate, dynamic and delicately beautiful aesthetic."
Nothing on this is quite as good as their Don't Fall In Love single, which is still on Bandcamp but not on eMusic for some reason. But definitely worth having for fans of spooky-sounding dreamgazey pop bands with female whisperer-singers.
It's 2 am. My son is keeping me up later now that he's on vacation (track out in year round schools). I've moved on to watching reruns of "Switched at Birth," which is far less corny than I expected.

- This is excellent, Thanks Jonah . . .

Found second-hand in Dublin yesterday - not the typical fate of a fifteen-year-old album of medieval music!
Holy crap! When I went to Amazon to get the image for this I saw that it's available in MP3! Steve Albini must be mellowing in his old age.
