The mystic's work is brought to its roots in the Caucasus
The mystic Georges Gurdjieff composed and dictated volumes of piano
music. Levon Eskenian's Gurdjieff Folk Instruments Ensemble reclaims
these pieces from the salons of Paris and takes them back to their
roots in the Caucasus: played on blul, kamancha, santur, saz and above
all, Armenia's melancholy apricot-wood flute, the duduk, they reveal
their origins and themselves.
