Between the Shores of Our Souls

Songs of Love and Longing featuring the poetry of Rumi & Kahlil Gibran

A true musical love-affair, this album features the enchanting interplay of the vocals of this duo, evoking the perfect balance of yin and yang, masculine and feminine in every note. Angelika’s lilting song-bird voice is wrapped in the warmth of Markus’ gentle melodies.

Special Guest: Nils Petter Molvær

You feel Mirabai Ceiba’s album move through your body like inhaling a sea breeze before you consciously hear it with your ears.

Between the Shores of Our Souls is a daring new direction for the band, featuring 10 songs of poetry on love and longing from Kahlil Gibran and Rumi in English and Spanish.

On this album they are supported by a truly incredible line-up of world-renowned musicians who are each experts in their own field. Norwegian Jazz musician Nils Petter Molvær brings his world-acclaimed trumpet into the lush world of this album with such a gentle touch, it feels that it was made for this music. The double cello artistry of both Noah Hoffeld and Yoed Nir is a delight, with each of their individual styles evoking a range of musical expressions that carry you from song to song. Megan Gould’s violin and viola bring her signature touch of elegance and sweetness. And through it all, Benjamin Wittman’s steady, deeply-moving percussion carries the music forward with a rhythm that you will feel deep inside of you.

And the weaving of this tapestry is artfully carried out by the skillful production of Jamshied Sharifi who also plays keyboards, bass, electric guitar, ukulele, and tambour on this album.
