The first volume of Orient Occident - released in 2006 - turned out to be a landmark in Jordi Savall's discography. For the first time, the maestro explored an extra-European repertoire, demonstrating the same musicological expertise he had shown with composers like Marin Marais. The album soon became a best seller. The second volume in this exploration focuses on Syria, alternating instrumental and vocal pieces. Musicians from Syria, Lebanon and Israel play alongside Hesperion XXI and illustrate the artistic and humanist process we have come to expect from Jordi Savall.

"Seam Line" or "Kav HateFer" in Hebrew, is the term used by Israelis to describe the geographical boundary between the Israeli and Palestinian areas. As in life, with all the dynamic complexities of the region, the group "Kav Hatefer" incorporates many eclectic and intertwining styles of music. Established by Kobi Hagoel in 1995, with a fusion of tastes from the Middle East, the Balkans, North Africa, India and Persia, mixed with jazz and rock, the group has since performed all over Israel in clubs, festivals and on Israeli television. The music was written by Kobi Hagoel, Asi Givati and Harel Shachal.
