"This world music is a tribute to my ancestors from Adrianople, a city found in the ancient lands of Thrace in the Balkans. Adrianople was designed by Bahá’u’lláh as 'The Land of Mystery'. It is a land of haunting melodies, folkloric instruments, and amazing voices. The Land of Mystery album captures some of the most beautiful Balkan folkloric melodies and presents them in a true world music fashion with orthodox choral singing, and L.A. vocals fused with contemporary and dynamic rhythms." - A. Zografov
