This is a big favorite of mine. Truly extraordinary. I've checked out other Aranos releases, and I'm afraid they get a bit redundant pretty quickly. This one, though, is astonishingly beautiful. They did another, Santoor Lena Bicycle (spelling?), which is also quite nice, but more difficult to find.

I'll take your caveat to heart regarding Aranos, but I'm still interested to hear his other projects. Santoor I'm trying to save the shekels to buy. It's available in some sectors, but pricey. I agree with you on Acts... Deeply beautiful.

I love the CD... the other Aranos CD is a little different... more "busy". I have it, I will post it soon... but remind me if it doesn't happen in a week or so because I am quite forgetful...
Thanks for the get well wish too.
