the song from the beginning of "black hawk down", that's some nice stuff. i'd like to know who did that one. my guess it's an american composer, but they sure did a nice job emulating true middle eastern music.
ask your client if they'll let you post a little snippet of the session. i'd like to hear the outcome.
have fun! let us know how it goes!

Probably worth noting that the Sitar is not a Middle Eastern instrument. Middle Eastern string instruments include the Oud, Buzuq, Turkish Saz, Kanoun, and they play a lot of European strings like violins etc. Sitar is from India.
I'll have to check out that Black Hawk Down song though.
