3 out of 5 stars River Dawn: Piano Meditations.......2007-07-13

Delightful arrangement. Soothing music for massage. Volume of this copy very poor. I must turn my CD volume control high in order to hear it.

5 out of 5 stars Modern-day Satie .......2006-12-17

I have been scouring for music to use during healing imagery sessions. I wanted something quiet, clear and fresh. Music that could stand on its own but not overwhelm or bore. This album is perfect. It is lyrical, uncomplicated, and fills an hour without breaks in between. I also find myself listening to it at other times. With candlight, sets a calming mood.

5 out of 5 stars Great!.......2006-04-26

I listen to this CD all the time, especially when I've had a stressful day.

2 out of 5 stars Nice, but not quite right for bodywork sessions.......2006-03-20

This is a sweet, quiet album, however, it doesn't quite work for a massage therapy or other bodywork sessions. While the music itself is not intrusive, there are occasional "bum" and off notes that filter in through the hour-long piece that can be distracting in a quiet bodywork session. While this would not be a problem if the music is just serving as background sound as you do other things, in a massage, a client's mind looks to the music for calm and focus. For many, music is an essential component of the relaxation response during a massage. I used this with a number of my regular clients and they each were distracted or jarred when an off note tumbled by. I certainly understand that one can't be perfect over an hour-long performance, but I find this unsuitable for massage for that reason.

5 out of 5 stars Masterpiece!.......2006-03-19

River Dawn moves me. I often play it while working, while relaxing, while dining, and many other occasions. This disc is passionate, romantic, and soothing. This disc would fit nicely in anyone's collection....check it out.
