Okay, so I've long wanted to see a collaborative project between Loreena McKennitt and Azam Ali. I'm working right now on trying to arrange exactly such a performance, in a venue in which I installed the a/v system, which has onsite video production and surround recording and webcasting capabilities.

And I went and saw Azam Ali perform with Niyaz last night, and had the pleasure of getting to meet all of the members of the band, and Azam and her husband, multi-instrumentalist Loga Ramin Torkian, both expressed interest in such a performance, so...

Question:
How likely would you be to purchase a DVD of an evening with Loreena McKennitt and Azam Ali?

Choices:
Not likely.
I might.
I probably would.
I definitely would.
I better be able to get more than one!

Question:
If you weren't able to attend the show in person, how interested would you be in a live webcast?

Choices:
Not very interested.
Moderately interested.
Count me in!

 

LiZjul I am in a good mood and being supporting your suggered names Dolores and Tori Sister Sharing Loreena may be in a self-interrogating situation Azam Ali will benefit surely of a phone call from Dolores or Tori . As now I miss Kate and Anna McGarrigle lyrics & music I wish some (3) of our Preppy Girls meet and sounds sweet together to be enjoying us ' de belle facon ''

Hi there,

I had not heard of Azam Ali before. I went to her website (which was very engaging.) I listened to the music on her website, and it sounds so communal, mysterious and haunting. Her voice takes you to another place. If Loreena decides to participate in this project, I would love to see how it would be done.

If you should ever think of other artists that Azam Ali possibly could vocally/musically pair up with, there is Moya Brennan, Dolores O'Riordan of the Cranberries or Tori Amos.
