Introduction

The Sound Of Gaya is a new vocal crossover project written and produced by
James Seymour Brett. Inspired by work on film projects, the album blends classical orchestra, powerful mixed voices and ethnic infused percussion and guitars. The material consists of broad and epic anthems, fast and powerful incantations and pure and simple hymns and prayers.

The Sound Of Gaya is a unique mixture of ancient-tribal song and chant mixed with classic orchestral accompaniment but produced with modern pop sensibilities. The album is aimed at classical crossover fans, advertising agencies, trailer houses, and the chill-out crowd.
