   PGM 767 : "DESERT CROSSING"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   PGM NOTE : an Arabic-North African journey
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 5-26-06
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: The haunting rhythms of North African music: 
   it creates a state of equilibrium in motion. 

   One of the great masters of this genre passed away in May 2006: 
   Nubian musician HAMZA EL DIN. With his gentle voice and his skillful 
   performances on the oud -- the Arabian short-neck lute, and the tar -- 
   the ancient single-skin frame drum of the upper Nile, Hamza El Din 
   was a true cultural ambassador, introducing hundreds of thousands of 
   westerners to the sound and spirit of his desert culture. During a long 
   and fruitful career, his original compositions joined the delicate textures
   of Arabic music with the earthy, indigenous music of his native Nubia.

   the tropics.

   PGM 765 : "TEMPLE OF LOVE"
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   PGM NOTE : the ardent sound of Indian devotional music
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=
   FEED DATE : 5-05-06
=--------------------------------------------------------------------=

   INTRO: In the villages of central India, we still find ornate
   temples over a thousand years old. With their brilliant decoration,
   these buildings celebrate love — one of the three aims of life
   in the Hindu religion. The music of India also celebrates love
   in its many devotional songs and chants. This is love of a
   different order — the love of spiritual evolution and worship of
   the divine.
