The compositions on Dralion draw not only from classical and new age sources, but also from various world beat idioms, including Indian music, African dances, and Eastern European folk music. It's another typically eclectic and inventive Cirque du Soleil project, and intriguing in the ways it finds commonalties between the disparate approaches of Western music and the other sources from which it draws. ~ Steve Huey
