"I can't imagine a better way to explore the richness of Turkish culture than through its music. A guided music tour led by World Music expert Dore Stein would be unforgettable. Dore opens doors that music-lovers who travel on their own don't even know are there."

Israel: We won't assist 'obsessive' UN Gaza flotilla probe  Haaretz  7/25/10
According to a senior Israeli official, the sense at the Foreign Ministry, the Defense Ministry and the Prime Minister's Office is that cooperating with the investigative committee would only confer legitimacy upon the UNHRC, which has consistently acted against Israel. The three-member U.N. panel is to submit its conclusions by mid-September, before which it is expected to try and visit Israel, Gaza and Turkey. In light of Jerusalem's expected decision not to cooperate with the panel, it is not thought the members will be allowed into Israel.

Tangents Morocco Tour

Next Tour 2011
Morocco: where music happens.


"A tour with Dore Stein is a most amazing voyage. Dore brings love and knowledge of diverse musical sources to his tour. He loves to dive into the local scene and creates opportunities to hear music you would not otherwise experience. I have haunting memories of Gnawa musicians performing in a restaurant in Essaouira that was closed for the evening, and surreal memories of Berber musicians performing at a desert camp in the Sahara for New Year's Eve.
