“Nawal continues to dazzle us with her Sufi-inspired collection of songs... Nawal knows how to entertain our spirit and grace our presence with her divine musical prowess” M. Forss 2011, Inside World Music (USA)
Embrace the Spirit
- A voice, which follows its own path… Accompanied by the instruments of her Indian Ocean roots: gambusi, flute, mbira, and daf; Nawal invites us into her dream of a peaceful world. The music caresses the soul and embraces the spirit. Thoughts and words disappear, and make way for meditation, introspection and inner peace.
“Embrace the Spirit” is a unique album concept conceived by Nawal, performed solo, these ten songs blend into a grand hymn honoring peace and human dignity. Nawal calls on the powerful universal forces to assist positive change and liberation for the world and all its beings.
