Composed by the amazing Argentinian composer Osvaldo Golijov, Ayre is a breathtaking ode to various styles of folk music ranging from Sephardic tunes to Eastern European music and Christian Arab traditions. It is both a celebration of worldwide sound colours, and an attempt at building bridges between painfully separated and opposed cultures. Ayre was recorded live at TivoliVredenburg, Utrecht, in collaboration with the wonderful Asko|Schönberg Ensemble.
