we should still talk about that, yes.

by the way, i have spent some time in listening
and re-listening, Raven. i'm somewhat intimidated.
however, i believe that given the right mix of ethnicity
and otherworldliness this could - with hope - meet to
what you are going after.

housings in which to lay her voice down)

Amy, i didn't know you had or played some of these instruments.
the psaltry - is it the plucked or bowed flavour?
that could also fit so very well... a mixture of upper European,
middle eastern, southeastern Michigan, er, hm.

for anyone interested in instruments from the entire
surface of this planet, i strongly suggest you check out
Lark In The Morning. they're a distrubutor in Mendocino,
CA, and have everything you could imagine.
the caliber of instruments they carry is sometimes less
than perfect, but it's easier than trekking to Istanbul.



(or was that Constantinople?)


(oh, i guess it's nobody's business...)




(except the Turks'.)



now that this has degraded beyond repair,
