This album is in practice a compilation of current trends in Malagasy music, but in theory it is an album by two guitarists (Henry Kaiser and David Lindley). The pair traveled to Madagascar to record with a number of the island's musicians. Many of the songs herein actually don't incorporate the two guitarists in any manner outside of production. Some of the biggest names in Malagasy music are present, including Tarika Sammy, Dama & D'Gary, Mahaleo, and Rossy. The music winds from current Malagasy pop to traditional valiha playing, with occasional help from the recording duo. For a basic look into relatively contemporary trends in Malagasy music, this album might not be such a bad way to go. For a more traditional look, items from The Secret Museum of Mankind (and other similar series) might be a better idea. ~ Adam Greenberg, Rovi
