Malaysia: Dream Songs & Healing Sounds/ Various - Dream Songs & Healing Sounds

The Temiar people of the central Malaysian rainforest are deeply spiritual. Inspired by their vibrant natural environment, they have developed a musical landscape that evolves from their dreams-dreamsongs. Dreamsongs form the basis for community-wide singing and trance-dancing ceremonies, which celebrate all the important occasions in Temiar society. Proceeds from artist's royalties are donated to rainforest preservation in Malaysia and to the indigenous peoples there. 21 tracks.
