ROWIAL This track is a perfect continuation and completion of Derrick Spiva's wonderful album ’Prisms, Cycles, Leaps’ from 2015. (Click this: orendarecords.bandcamp.com/album/prisms-cycles-leaps )
Another fantastic version of world<>modern-chamber-crossover presented irresistibly by an ≥11piece ensemble called Bridge To Everywhere ... what else?

about

From Here A Path draws inspiration from Husago (a piece that includes drumming, dancing, and singing) from the Ewe people of Ghana, kaval flute playing from Eastern Europe, and elements of Hindustani classical music. The piece shifts its emphasis from 6/4 to 12/8 and 4/2 and also uses different combinations of 5/8 and 7/8. The tihai (a thrice-repeated rhythmic phrase in an overlapping meter that is used to end a section or conclude a piece in Hindustani classical music) is also included multiple times in the piece. The title From Here A Path references the momentum and resistance one gathers to reach a point.
