The music is very well recorded. The sound of the bamboo flute is very attractive because of its complex and full character. The music is at times meditative and at times dramatic (if that is the appropriate word). Although the record is Mint it has been metaculously cleaned on my improved Keith Monks record Cleaning Machine for which I have devised a very effective cleaning method. The cover is Mint as well.
