David Chevan and Warren Byrd: Let Us Break Bread Together
by AAJ Staff
The title of this disc--along with its subtitle, Further explorations of the Afro-Semitic experience"--may suggest difficult listening. (Ceremonial, restrictive, and heavy are a few words that may come to mind.) But rest assured, that's not at all the case. Let Us Break Bread Together is more a joyous celebration of diversity than it is any kind ...
