  This special 2024 reissue of this “classic” album of world orchestral music is now available as a highly collectible Limited "Numbered" Edition (1-50 copies only!). Beautifully packaged in a plastic-free, eco friendly cardboard album sleeve, this new edition also has stunning full-colour disc artwork printed in an ultra-gloss finish to highlight the artwork’s finest details. Now released under the Grant Mackay Music moniker www.grantmackaymusic.com.
  Experience anew the exotic sounds of unusual world
  instruments like the Kanun (Syrian Zither), Kora (African Harp, Setar (Persian Lute) and even the massive power of the giant bass saxophone! All of these and other world music instruments are artfully arranged with Western strings, wind instruments and synthesizsers into powerful and evocative orchestral-like compositions.
  
  Inspired by the Bardo Thödol (The Tibetan Book of the Dead) and other writings on past lives, Bardo draws musical ideas from a myriad of places and eras, then sonically ventures into the void of the “bardo state” or “life between life” state. Using an orchestra of world music instruments Bacchus weaves a symphony for many lives.
