I Hope It Was Good: Epiphany Project and "Taliesen's Dream"

Epiphany Project brings us our random tune for today, called Taliesen's Dream. Epiphany Project is a new world folk ensemble that features Bet Williams on vocals, John Hodian on piano and Mal Stein on percussion. They combine unique melodies, world music styles and rhythms, thoughtful lyrics and improvisation to create music that spans time and space. Their goal is to put you in the moment, and to do that they have gathered sacred and secular texts in Aramaic, Sanskrit, Armenian, Farsi, Swahili and Welsh and employ inspiration from Armenian spiritual music, minimalism, Appalachian folk, jazz, qawwali devotional songs, acoustic blues and Tuvan throat singing. You can find Taliesen's Dream on their 2008 album Hin Dagh. The title of the song refers to a great Welsh bard whose work dates to the 6th century CE (AD).
