Review by Laura Russell

The album Song of Lahore by Sachal Ensemble is a beautiful blend of traditional Pakistani music and contemporary jazz. The ensemble, made up of talented musicians from Lahore, Pakistan, has created a unique sound that is both captivating and uplifting.

The album features a mix of original compositions and classic Pakistani songs, all of which have been given new life through the Sachal Ensemble's innovative arrangements. The musicians' virtuosity is on full display throughout the album, with each member contributing their own distinct voice to the overall sound.

The standout track on the album is undoubtedly the title track, "Song of Lahore." This hauntingly beautiful piece features a stunning vocal performance by Shafqat Amanat Ali, which is complemented perfectly by the ensemble's lush instrumentation.

Notes

Inspired by two-time Oscar-winning documentarian Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy and Andy Schocken's film of the same name, Song of Lahore is an album centered on the Sachal Ensemble: musicians forced to play in secret under strict Shariah law of their home country, Pakistan. Song of Lahore is not a soundtrack in the traditional sense, but rather a companion album to the film.
