{"product_id":"bridges-1","title":"BRIDGES","description":"2018 release. Jamie Baum on this project: \"I found there to be very deep connections going back centuries, between certain types of Jewish music (my earliest musical influences) and Arabic, Middle Eastern and South Asian music. To make a long story short, researching these musical connections and composing music based on them became the focus of my project, Bridges, for my Guggenheim Fellowship. This music represents a \"bridge\", highlighting the similarities found in diverse religious music traditions that connect us, expressed in a modern jazz\/improvisatory format played by musicians of those various backgrounds. Drawing on influences from Jewish, Muslim\/Arabic and Hindu\/South Asian music, these stellar musicians transform my compositions with an urgency and commitment into a unique, exciting tapestry, taking the listener (and themselves) into territory that feels both familiar and unknown.\"","brand":"SUNNYSIDE","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":52030491722008,"sku":"016728150224","price":16.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/3773722.jpg?v=1778048046","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/bridges-1","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
