 I would like to point out to friends passionate about all musical genres (as long as we are talking about masterpieces) an album released by the brilliant Mark Isham, a keyboardist and trumpet player with a difficult classification, who operates in an undefined area between soft electronics, world music, David Sylvian-like atmospheres (of whom he is a friend and collaborator), film music, and jazz.
