5 out of 5 stars Captivating music from the greatest documentary ever made about the oceans........2007-02-14

Well we have all see the documentary, an incredible collection of footage superbly narrated by the one and only David Attenborough. One of the things that made the series was the enigmatic and inspiring music by George Fenton. Some of the best from the series is on this CD, but alas there is much missing. Still, there is plenty to keep you going. If you enjoyed the series and loved the music then this is the CD for you.

5 out of 5 stars Blue Planet.......2007-01-07

Only containing about an hours worth of music from an eight hour proram, needless to say that there is missing music. However, the music presented is great. Some cues are expanded, and some are only a feeling of an entire episode. But overall, this is a great listen. The show was fantastic in almost every way, and the music in the series plays well with the images. The soundtrack is worth it.

4 out of 5 stars Georges Fenton à son meilleur.......2003-04-17

Après avoir composé la musique de Anna and the King, George Fenton s'attaqua quelques temps plus tard à The Blue Planet, un documentaire de la BBC sur la vie marine. Georges sut ici nous donner une merveilleuse partition, remplit de grands moments. Après une fabuleuse ouverture (The Blue Planet) et des morceaux raffraichissants tels que Sardine Rin et Spinning Dolphins, l'album semble s'essoufler dans la partie médiane, avec des morceaux servis à la "simili-musique-pop". Quoi qu'il en soit, un retour en force est assuré pour la finale. Il s'agit ici d'un album sympatique, avec de surberbes passages, où George Fenton se donne à coeur joie avec une liberté quasi-totale. Le tout vient dans un boitier de couleur bleuté, question de s'y sentir encore plus! ;-)

Album Description

A collection of nine quintessential Chuck Greenberg compositions featuring his trademark lyricon, flutes, and tenor & soprano saxes. Features Shadowfaxers Phil Maggini and Charles Bisharat, as well as Alex DeGrassi and a host of others. Experienced a very limited release in 1991, yet rose to #6 on the Gavin Report Adult Alternative and #12 on Billboards Top Adult Alternative.

5 out of 5 stars Genius.......2005-08-27

Chuck Greenberg was one of the true geniuses of modern new age/jazz. A wonderful melodist, a more than competent instrumentalist, a far better than average composer and a great lead musician or sidekick. This CD shows him at his best, although there were some unbelievable duets with Chuck and Will Ackerman, too. The duets here are with Alex DeGrassi, who ain't too bad a guitarist himself. As usual, Chuck is brilliant, melodic and wonderful. Do yourself a HUGE favor and buy this CD.

4 out of 5 stars Both less -- and more! -- than Shadowfax.......2003-03-27

Recorded at a time when Shadowfax faced a very uncertain future, this album by group leader Chuck Greenberg showed a side of the man's music that hadn't quite shown up on the most recent band releases. The other group members were becoming increasingly involved in the songwriting, so Chuck had accumulated quite a backlog of material.

On his own album ,we are missing some sides of the band's multi-faceted musical personality. The emphasis on various ethnic percussion mixtures, or the gentle acoustic or dynamic electric guitar parts don't really show up. Chuck pretty much sticks to beautiful, gentle pieces based on keyboards, over which he solos distintively with his trademark wind instruments, sax and lyricon.

These pieces, though, are highly melodic and engaging, showing the full range of Chuck's writing, performing and produicing skills. The one departure is the amusing "Two Headed Alarm Clock", with a very funky electric guitar rhythm and lyricon all over the place. Very fun!

If you think music labeled "New Age" is dull background music, then this album will change your mind. It's getting harder to find, so get it and open up to the great music of Chuck Greenberg. Then, check out his work with Shadowfax.

5 out of 5 stars Very typical of Chuck Greenberg, meaning wonderful.......2002-06-13

This is Chuck Greenberg's first, and only, album under his own name, and it is well worth having. Mr. Greenberg has contributed to many albums by other fine musicians, as well as to the great group "Shadowfax", but I have not heard him play any better than he does on this album. Just the track "No Long Goodbyes" is worth many times the price of the disk. Please, if you like music, buy this CD.

5 out of 5 stars Close your eye's and listen..................2000-11-26

The CD "From A Blue Planet", by Chuck Greenberg, is a must for everyone who enjoys Instrumental Music. Textures of intertwined sounds and movements, best describes this wonderful experience. Violin, Guitar, Saxophone, Flute, Drums, all blending together to evoke emotions from the listener.

My only regret is that I am unable to find anything else by Mr. Greenberg. So scoop it up, share it with friends, you will not be disappointed.

5 out of 5 stars Timeless:.......2000-04-12

That's what we call all of the late Chuck's work. What makes it so? The failure to duplicate. New Age Music has evolved into a generic blend, but there has only been One Chuck Greenberg and this album is his first and only solo endeavor. Originally released in 1991, many consider it to be his finest ever. My favorite track is "Two-Headed Alarm Clock," named after the Greenberg twins by Alex De Grassi, who also adds some of his finest guitar work on tracks like "The Secret of Time." Audiophiles who've come to expect the finest in sound quality from Chuck and Shadowfax will not be disappointed. Nine years later, this impeccably recorded album remains superior to most music released today.

5 out of 5 stars Unique, Exquisite Sounds of Music & Nature.......2000-07-27

This collection of unique music is an absolute delight. Rarely do you find such a collection that you can enjoy, and that you can learn from as well. The sounds of the instruments, many of which are unique in themselves, are finely woven with animal voices and other sounds from nature to create a fascinating and rich tapestry. I've owned this CD for two years, and listen to it frequently. The packaging is beautiful--and there's much to learn by reading the liner notes and credits. The recording quality is outstanding--many layers of sounds and details all of which are clear. Thanks, Bill Robe, James Donnellan and Thomas Bocci for your exquisite work!

5 out of 5 stars You must hear this CD!.......1999-10-16

Listening to Vanishing Voices is a total experience, too much to write about. Clever songwriting mixed in with digitized animal sounds create the feeling of nature.

Very inspirational and easy to listen to. Also, the companion song booklet contains great artwork and unforgettable quotations. Thi is very high quality and provides a roadmap to experience Vanishing Voices..

I like this music very much and so does my 7 year old daughter!
