Rim Bannais a popular Palestine singer. One of her famous album is “Mirror of My Soul” used as reference by many audiophile, due to excellent quality recording and excellent Rim Banna “emotional transfer” of pain and loneliness inside. We might not understand what she is saying (Arabic lyrics), but her voice could “translate” the lyrics into enjoyable song. That’s the magic!
Krybberom (2003) actually older that the popular “Mirror of My Soul” (2005), but still interesting to be discussed. Rim Banna works together with SKRUK (Norwegian art ensemble) to create a fascinating album, Krybberom. This album, most of them, are talking about Nativity (that explains the “baby mummy” photo on the front cover) with traditional song, culture, combined with great ensemble choir. If you ever hear “Now The Green Blade Riseth” album, then this Krybberom is most alike with it. But just the Krybberom sounds more sacred and “powerful”, instead the joyful in the “Now The Green Blade Riseth” album.
Most tracks of this CD are amazing. Combination between Rim Banna unique voice and ensemble/choir on the background could create an amazing soundstaging/layering on appropriate sound system. Most of the tracks are lacked of instruments, only some flygel (piano), bass, and percussion.
