He uses the wonderfully reflective qualities and tones of the solo oud to explore Gibran’s themes, from the tenderness and hesitancy of Love to the confidence of Self Knowledge, from the reassuring refrain of Friendship to conflict in Good and Evil. Beautifully packaged with accompanying texts, The Prophet reflects a steadily growing personal and musical maturity. – Michael Rofe, The Australian
