AliaVox’s Orient-Occident 1200-1700 is unique in Jordi Savall’s recorded output in that, despite the title, it has no correspondence whatsoever with any specific historical or musicological program. Rather, like the “East meets West” albums pairing violinist Yehudi Menhuin with sitar player Ravi Shankar, Orient-Occident 1200-1700 brings Savall and ace Hespèrion XXI percussionist Pedro Estevan into the orbit of Greek santur player Dimitris Psonis, Israeli oud player Yair Dalal, Moroccan oudist Driss El Maloumi, and three Afghan traditional musicians — Osman Ahrman, Khaled Arman, and Siar Hashimi. The result is not like a typical crossover experiment so much as it is a trans-Mediterranean stew of closely related styles. Played by this group, on this combination of instruments, dances from the Italian trecento, Sephardic romances, Persian classical music, and thirteenth century Spanish dances all sound like they are cut from the same cloth. It is even more integrated than, say, Yo-Yo Ma’s Appalachia Waltz. With Ma’s group, one can tell from the slickness and high virtuosic sheen of the pieces that Appalachia Waltz isn’t your standard brand of bluegrass music. Comparatively, it would be really rather difficult to identify anything on Orient-Occident 1200-1700 apart from a well-recorded and performed disc of traditional Arabic music, or for that matter, one of Savall’s own past recordings of medieval dance music. ― Allmusic
