Music. CD. MUSIC OF TEA is a compilation of tea-inspired and soothing instrumental world music. It includes the song "Marco Polo," written and performed by Loreena McKennitt. Listening to this CD brings you on a mystical journey through India, Japan, Taiwan, Morocco, England, France, Ireland and Tea, South Dakota. All 16 instrumental tracks by Joel Douek and Eric Czar were composed to upraise and complement indigenous music in tea-influenced countries. Featured instruments include the alto flute, cello, pipa, accordian, ehru, electric violin, piano, and guitar. From charming and cheerful to mellow and transcendental, each track embodies a different musical mood designed to enhance the most meditative moments. MUSIC OF TEA, offering hints of natural sounds, is not only the original soundtrack for THE MEANING OF TEA documentary film and book, but it's also the perfect soundtrack for any contemplative pursuit. "MUSIC OF TEA is a mesmerizing mix of world music that every tea drinker will want in their collection"--Bruce Richardson, Fresh Cup Magazine.
