Details:
ORA TAMBÓ (Pray Drum) is a personal tribute of Istvan Dely, one-time Congo tatan''ganga priest in Cuba and the first conga drummer in his native Hungary, to his origins in drumming and spirituality: tata Cuatrovientos Probafuerza and Yayi Chola of Ganabacoa. He does so by adding to the rich legacy he once received, the accumulated harvest of forty years of spiritual and musical quest on three continents, and raising it to the new heights of a contemporary and global spirituality enshrined in Bahá''u''lláh''s Revelation.

For a significant segment of the world''s population, sacred music, as indeed all music, rests upon drums, and worship is inseparable from drum dancing. "In Africa (as well as in her Caribbean Diaspora), the drum is king. The drum''s rank in black music is both rhythmic and melodic and even oratorical, besides being sacred and thaumaturgical... It is the supreme ruler, always accompanied by other instruments which, coming from all the realms of Nature, are his vassals and make up his symphonic retinue." (Fernando Ortiz) ORA TAMBĂ“is a veritable treasure-trove for drummers and drum-lovers, as well as delicate spiritual food for souls thirsting for the ecstasy of worship.

ORA TAMBÓ brings together prayers by Bahá''u''lláh, ''Abdu''l-Bahá and the Báb recited, chanted, and sung in Spanish, English, Haitian Creole, Portuguese, Chinese, Persian, Arabic, Garífuna, and Hungarian, with the sacred African drumming traditions of Cuban Santería and Palo, Haitian Vodoun, Colombian Lumbalú, Puerto Rican Bomba, Bush Negro Winti, and Brazilian Candomblé, as a universally viable way, along with other modes, of expressing the veneration of the sacred which lies at the very heart of every culture.
