Gilad Atzmon & The Orient House Ensemble - Songs of the Metropolis (2013)

Once upon a time and actually not that long ago, our cities conveyed some meaning, they were a unique reflection of ourselves: they were home to our thoughts, ideas and yearnings.
When we were young, our cities belonged to us: their colours were our shades, their smells our scents; but more than anything else, their sounds were our songs. Each city had a melody, a resonance, a bell, an instrument, a voice. This album is a pursuit of the sound of the city.
