Includes liner notes by Deepak Chopra.
It wouldn't be remiss to ask: Is A GIFT OF LOVE a meditation on erotic longing, a glorious paean to the Almighty? The answer is: both. The CD, like Jelaleddin Rumi's poetry, manages to be different things to different people. Here bite-size samples of Sufi wisdom cover a range of ideas, from "Desire," to "A Lover's Madness," to "Supreme Lover."
Deepak Chopra's album features the voices of Madonna, Demi Moore, Martin Sheen, and other stars, providing the project with instant allure, while bringing in a little street cred via civil rights activist Rosa Parks and Buddhist scholar Robert Thurman. Chopra would have been wise to hand over his own readings to the other performers, but overall, the album makes a good introduction to these timeless 13th century verses, and the accompanying music is danceable in its own right. |
