Breizh - Pennoù Skoulm - Pennoù Skoulm (1994), "La valsounette et la valse des pastouriaux"
Scotland - Session A9 - Bottlenecks and Armbreakers (2008), "Sporting Paddy, Hamish the Carpenter, Hull's, Road to Erogie" The A9 is the road they had to take to get to Charlie McKerron's house when he had this idea for a group. There are a lot of turns.

Muzsikás with Sebestyen Marta - Máramaros: The Lost Jewish Music of Transylvania (1993)
Hungarian musicians went in search of Jewish music from the Maramures region, lost to the Shoah. They found Roma who preserved pieces of that knowledge and made this album.
"Szombateste búcsúztató" (Farewell to Shabbat); "Chaszid tánc" (Khosid Dance)
India - Anouskha Shankar (sitar) - Live at Carnegie Hall (2001)

Kurdish - Iran - Kayhan Kalhor (kamancheh) & Ali Akbar Moradi (tanbur) - In the Mirror of the Sky (2004), "Showgh" (Joyful Anticipation, renamed "Delight" on the re-release apparently); "Choupi"
Improvisations on Kurdish melodies. Kamancheh is a Persian spike fiddle & my very favourite instrument. Tanbur is a Kurdish lute.
