Bantock succeeded Sir Edward Elgar at Birmingham University in 1908. During his time there he developed an interest in large-scale choral composition, producing among other works, his choral masterpiece 'Omar Khayyam.' In addition to three soloists and large chorus, Bantock involves a large orchestra with two full string complements, arranged to the left and right of the conductor. In an atmospheric caravan scene Bantock also makes use of authentic camel bells.

N'Dour's ongoing quest for a truly global African pop spurs his smoothest -- you might say most homogenized -- disc yet, one that basks in assimilation and transformation. He is becoming to mbalax what Milton Nascimento is to Brazilian, which means a gain in sophistication but a certain loss of directness. ~ Bob Tarte
Senegal native Youssou N'Dour is one of the most recognized figures on the world-music stage. EYES OPEN, the singer's first album for Spike Lee's 40 Acres & A Mule record label, garnered N'Dour a Grammy nomination, and further enhanced his reputation. N'Dour's mellifluous tenor sounds superb here, and the musical melange of the record continues the artist's fusion of native African rhythms and melodies with Caribbean, jazz, and pop styles. N'Dour's lyrics address everything from media ("Things Unspoken"), military ("Useless Weapons"), unwanted childbirth ("Couple's Choice"), and the difficulties of African identity ("Country Boy"). The musical palette of EYES OPEN is quite broad, and while there is a lessened presence of traditional African elements (which are still prominent, but are blended artfully into the mix), those intrigued by N'Dour's attempt to create a new global pop will find much to appreciate here.
