  • All Music Guide

    Most of the songs on Haza's 1989 release, which fittingly coincides with her first U.S. concert tour, are sung partially in English; but the content is still about the Yemenite Jewish community, Yemenite tradition, and peace in the Middle East, with the imagery and rhythm of the desert an integral part of this music. "Fantamorgana," a tribute to her mother and other Yemenite Jews who were persecuted and banished to Yemen's desert, includes the voice of her mother chanting in Arabic. The time's ripe for this sort of world music to gain a foothold in the arena of commercial recognition and success.
