Editorial Reviews

During this hour-long disc (which involves four sections, from 12 to 17 minutes in length, and is performed by four unrecognized musicians), the listener experiences the following: two interesting abstractions (the opening and concluding selections), one tedious exercise in parlor music for classical guitar, and yet one more unneeded spin (on synthesizer) of the most overworked warhorse in the genre, "Pachelbel Canon." You'll hear also random nature sounds (surf, crickets, birds), no voices, some botched notes, and an overall impression of gentleness and quiet. The disc's opener, "Tranquility," mixes occasional oboe and flute with a glowing, Jonn Serrie-like, electronic space walk, and qualifies as the disc's high point. Of course, you might be happier if you had chosen music by Serrie in the first place (and Century Seasons would be a good place to start). "Peaceful Evening," a delicate mix of piano, acoustic guitar, and nature sounds (plus traces of jazz harmonics), ends the proceedings on a positive note. --Terry Wood

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Top-notch sooth-ability! .......2005-03-09

Throughout this immeasurably relaxing album are the predominant natural sounds of both water and birdsong that get supported by an assortment of gentle keyboard instrumentations. From Ashron's singing bowls to Scholl's spacescape, from Shajan's pouring rain stick to the Gordon's bird and waterscapes, all lend the listener to a perfect blend of sound for bathing the mind and soothing the spirit. Sophia has the only track with vocals, but its ethereal voices are so sweet one forgives the gentle intrusion. In all, this is the Gordon's most relaxing and rewarding album for letting go. Top-notch sooth-ability!

5 out of 5 stars Incredibly Peaceful & Moving.......2005-03-01

This latest compilation of healing music from Sequoia Records is nothing less than brilliant. A follow up to their beautifully relaxing "Musical Healing" release from several years back, Perfect Balance: Musical Healing Vol. 2 surpasses the first in depth, dynamic and serenity. The majority of tracks here are mainly new releases along with a few classics from legendary healing music pioneers, David & Steve Gordon. These are balanced perfectly with some amazingly traquil tracks from such healing music luminaries as Shajan, Sophia and several new artists of note, including Bernd Scholl, whose track "Watermoon" blissfully carries the listener away on an ocean of eternal calm and Ashron, whose "Golden Light" bathes the listener in a waterfall of shimmering sound. This 69 plus minute release is superbly produed, mixed and sequenced allowing for ultimate release and relaxation and is long enough to just let it run for accompanying any healing arts session. An exceptional release.
