(Island Prayers concert review)
“By the end of the evening, the ensemble had taken listeners across the globe and carried on good- natured musical conversations throughout. Many similar groups have ventured out into world beat genre hopping, only to sound like out of place tourists focusing on the musical cliches of various cultures. The Turtle Island Quartet, by contrast, knows how to weave seemingly disparate strains of humanity together into a unified whole. It’s that unifying appeal that has made it such an enduring presence for almost four decades”
