Customer Reviews:

The greatest songs ever?.......2007-07-26

I heard 'clear or cloudy', from this recording, on the radio recently and had to purchase it. It is strange but it is the sort of song that makes life prior to listening to it different from life after. I find it sad that so many people haven't heard it. There are also many other wonderful works in this collection. Given you get twelve well recorded CDs with top quality performances, this has to be one of the bargains of the age.

Please buy it.

A musical treasure-box.......2006-09-10

Both the music and this actual product are masterpieces. John Dowland's collected works here - covering 12 compact discs - exhibit the depth and power of this composer, a composer who many now regard as suffering from clinical depression. I doubt that the issue of the diagnosis of Dowland's depression can ever be settled, however, it is certainly obvious from his music, so completely on display here, that he was a man with very dark depths and corners in his mind. Dowland's various manifestations and "takes" on his own tune, "Flow my tears"/"Lachrimae" are here. This tune has haunted me ever since I first heard it when I was a child. It seems to sum up Dowland's feelings - at least Dowland seems to have thought so.

The First, Second, Third and Fourth Bookes of Songes, A Musicall Banquet, the keyboard transcriptions, all the lute music, consort music are here and virtually everything else written or supposedly written by John Dowland. Anthony Rooley and The Consort of Musicke perform this music with style and feeling throughout. This 12 CD set is something of a monument to the ensemble - I only wish they'd finished their collection of Monteverdi madrigals, which was equally good (La Venexiana are currently doing a magnificent job of recording all Monteverdi's books of madrigals for the GLOSSA label).

This is an expensive set, however, you will probably never need to buy another John Dowland CD again after buying and listening to this collection.

I bought this CD set on a mild Summer evening of 1998 and listened to it while sitting in my sun room - which a glorious orange sunset in progress, and a glass of wine. It brought back so many memories.

a beautiful journey into melancholy.......2001-06-15

I'm amazed at how many people tend to associate John Dowland's music with a tragic sense of drama. While no doubt this is art highly based on sadness, the "tragic" sense of it is more a legacy from the Romantic period. During the Renaissance, however, sadness was undestood as a very aesthetic way of approaching life. That is also the reason why Shakespeare's tragedies appear more sophisticated than his comedies.

Dowland, a contemporary of Shakespeare, discovered that meditating on a sad theme is, at the same time, a way of discovering a special beauty that we tend to avoid (maybe because of the "tragic" heritage of the Romantics). So, in the end, meditating on sadness is an uplifting experience! This box set is a journey into melancholy that includes songs, chamber music, pieces for lute, some rare sacred music and -as a highlight- Dowland's beautiful collection of seven pieces for viola which he called "Lachrimae" (Tears).

Scan the New Age musical continuum for pianists and you'll find Danny Wright somewhere between Jim Brickman and David Lanz, though the spot he occupies sits closer to Lanz than Brickman. Wright, like Lanz and Brickman, favors a melodic, heart-tugging, mostly solo brand of piano music. Brickman, however, employs more pop elements into his works while Wright leans toward the sentimentality, sweetness, and melodrama often found in Lanz's music. Soul Mates, Wright's first release for Real Music, is a gentle collection of piano works (sometimes lightly accented with violins) that sticks to the white keys, particularly those in the upper register where Wright returns again and again to create an airy, twinkling, stardust-like effect. Happily, the compositions (nine originals, two covers) generally rely less on schmaltz and more on a sincere, intelligent delivery to convey their moods of romance and reflection. Several of the selections are pieces he composed for friends as gifts, and one, "Everlasting Love"--a thoughtful, impressionistic composition he debuted at a friend's wedding--is the best of the bunch. It's definitely sweet; fortunately, it's not too syrupy. --Terry Wood

Customer Reviews:

One of his best, if not the best.......2005-08-25

I have listened and own practically all of Danny Wright's albums. I especially love the songs he writes himself. This album contains many original songs and allows your mind to wander into spaces you only dream of. The first song: "Angel's Voices" and the 7th song: "Everything Must Change" are indicative of how tender, touching and romantic he makes you feel when listening to his music. He is by far my favorite piano player, and whenever I want to relax after beating my brains in at work, I put on one of his CD's. If you have ever loved, or lost at love, you will be touched by this man. Buy this album and give yourself a well deserved break.

Peaceful Music - Excellent for Massage.......2004-07-21

Solo piano, gently accented by strings. This CD is beautiful and relaxing. I'm a massage therapist and find it a great CD to play in the office. The only drawback is it's length - 41 minutes. I like CD's to be longer, but it's beautiful, nonetheless.

Beautiful.......2002-01-30

I am so glad I found this CD! I love piano music and after listening to this one over and over, I decided to order four more of his CD's. The Water is Wide certainly touchs my heart and soul. I have not received the other CD's yet, but I am sure this one has to be his best! TD

The Wright Stuff.......2001-10-23

This is by far my favorite Danny Wright album. The songs are lighter and more emotional than his earlier works. I find myself listening to this album over and over not really sure when it has ended and begun anew. For people who like this album, check out the music of Silvard....

A Plus for Real Music.......2001-06-29

When I saw that this Danny Wright album was his debut album for the Real Music label I was delighted. He belongs with Real Music. This is another wonderful Danny Wright album,consisting primarily of his own compositions, with the exception of three tracks. Six tracks have been written for and dedicated to individuals by Danny.. The final track is written in memory of John F. Kennedy, Jr.,Caroline and Lauren Bisset.This album is perfect for a quiet time when you want to relax and,perhaps,dream.It fills you with the gentle peace that is so much a part of Danny Wright's music.This is a welcome addition to his previous albums.

A Soothing And Romantic Instrumental.......2005-04-28

The talented and creative Bradley Powell is the Candlelight Guitarist. His music is original and some of the most soul soothing I have ever heard. "Soul Mates and Kindred Spirits" is his second CD and is sure to receive the same warm reception as his first, "Music For Rest And Renewal." The original release had Mr. Powell playing solo on the acoustic guitar, accompanied by sounds from nature, including the ocean, birds, rainfall, a stream and waterfall, fireside and night sounds. This latest offering has more of a contemporary, romantic, smooth jazz sound, which is good, although I'm a nature person myself. I live in NYC and am really deprived of natural white noise.

Other musicians join Powell on the 16 new tracks offered here, adding a fuller instrumental sound to the mix. A few of my favorites include, "Gift of the Heart," backed by strings, as well as some of the sounds of nature I am so taken with. "Wild Ponies," with its percussion rhythm, is a track I particularly enjoy, as well as many of the cuts with flute accompaniment.

I often come home from work stressed-out to the max, put this CD on and after a while the tension just flows away to the strains of this easy-on-the-ears music. A perfect instrumental album to play during a cozy dinner for two, or on a rainy Sunday afternoon - just the right sound for kicking back and relaxing. Accompanying Powell here are kindred spirits, Joey Cataldo on drums; Perez D'Agostino, percussion; Gilberto Hildavio, alto, soprano and bass flutes, English horn, clarinets; Mark Massey, Rhodes piano (on cuts 3, 12, 14); Darius Channing, keyboards; Mark Adams, French horn; and David Siebels, conductor on tracks 2, 8, 16.

The artist features a quotation on his Website, by Ralph Waldo Emerson, which is extremely appropriate to the music he makes, "Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything that is beautiful; for beauty is God's handwriting -- a wayside sacrament. Welcome it in every fair face, in every fair sky, in every fair flower, and thank God for it as a cup of blessing." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

I highly recommend "Soul Mates and Kindred Spirits." It has quiet soul and is good for the heart.

A Place Where the Heart Finds Joy........2005-03-29

In 2001, Bradley Powell released a CD entitled "Music for Rest and Renewal" under the name The Candlelight Guitarist: stirred by that September's events, and as his contribution to the healing process that followed and that is still ongoing. Three years later, he returned with "Soul Mates & Kindred Spirits;" like the 2001 album a collection of gentle guitar melodies, but this time adding not only nature sounds, flutes and oboes but also other instruments, such as string bass, drums and percussion, keyboards, and French horn.

Powell picked up his first guitar at age ten and later had the opportunity to study, inter alia, with jazz guitarist Joe Pass, Dr. Ronald Purcell (including one master class taught by Andres Segovia), and David Rose of "Little House on the Prairie" fame. It is that latter influence, and his work with studio composer Mike Post, that shines through here more than on "Music for Rest and Renewal:" Whereas on his first CD, his guitars are soothing voices speaking to all those looking for a few moments of peace and quiet, many of the pieces on "Soul Mates and Kindred Spirits" indicate a composer visualizing his topics as well as hearing them: There are those little horses' fast hooves in "Wild Ponies," there is the multi-voiced interaction of a group of friends in "The Buddy System," as well as the progress, but also the harmony of the seasons in "Summer, Winter, Spring and Fall," you do see those "Two Pairs of Old Soft Shoes" sauntering and gallivanting about, and you can picture some of those Soul Mates "Giving [each other] Wings" to help each other fly, as the closing piece's subtitle suggests. Most of the pieces are upbeat and, generally, faster than those on "Music for Rest and Renewal," but there are also a few slower, reflective tracks reminiscent of the first CD's general mood (e.g. "Gift of the Heart," "Listening," "Forgive, Forget," and "Just Being There"). Powell's fingerstyle technique is clear and a particular joy to listen to on the pieces that, like the better part of his first CD, put his guitars front and center: "Listening," "Forgive, Forget," "In the Moment" (inspired, as the subtitle suggests, by the astronomical snapshot of Earth and Mars at 2:51 AM during the night of August 27, 2003; and thus again reflecting a visual stimulation), as well as "Just Being There" and "Air for Soul Mates."

Contacted by email, Mr. Powell was reluctant to give specifics as to the types of guitars and strings used in the recording, but kindly confirmed that most of the pieces are played in standard tuning, with the guitar tuned down to D for only one track ("You Inspire Me"). He also mentioned the place that both guitars featured on this CD have in his life: one, his everyday companion; the other, a guitar that has been in his possession since college and has been fine-tuned by the hands of luthier Jose Oribe.

With his music, Bradley Powell wants to take you to a place "where tension is cast off, simplicity is embraced, the physical body is most relaxed, and the inner spirit is lifted up," he writes on his website; and he continues: "You don't really *think* in this place (does a bird *think* about flying?) ... you fully participate in the moment. It's a peaceful place, where the heart finds joy." In that, Powell succeeds admirably.

Gorgeous music.......2005-02-07

Have you ever had one of those days? You wake up on the wrong side of the bed. You stub your toe getting out of bed. You burn your toast. Miss the bus. Late in to work and the boss yells at you. You miss a deadline, you miss lunch, and then you miss the bus again. You pay an exorbitant fee for a taxi home, and when you get there you find that there's nothing for dinner. Well,...you're not alone. That is when you need a Soul Mate & Kindred Spirit. Pop this cd into your stereo and let these gorgeous sounds relax and restore you. The only thing it cannot do is stop the grumbling in your belly...so go get some food. Food and this cd...YEP...you'll go to bed feeling restored...guaranteed. :)

Plays the Guitar Like a Man In Love.......2005-01-29

Bradley Powell, playing as the `Candelight Guitarist' has composed a lovely and enjoyable CD in SOUL MATES & KINDRED SPIRITS that one can at once sense his affinity for the instrument as he loves, caresses and plays it as one would their lover. He plays it moodily, playfully and imbues his audience with both a sense of peace (tracks Kindred Spirits, Giving Wings) and playfulness (Two Pairs of Old Soft Shoes) along with plenty of other tracks that were also wonderfully produced and played.

I found this to be a sensitive and very relaxing CD that would be a perfect companion on a long drive or just kicking back with your significant other or a fabulous book! AND not to make light of the music but I not only found the music delightful but I thought that the original cover art of the album was also most excellent and right in tune with the tunes!

A relaxing instrumental album with an upbeat feel.......2005-01-28

Candlelight Guitarist Bradley Powell does a nice job of combining his soothing guitar melodies with other instruments--including bass, drums, flutes, woodwinds, horns, piano, and keyboards--as well as some soft ocean sounds. The result is a sort-of upbeat, pleasant background soundtrack which works well to set a relaxing mood at home, work, or in the car. Personally, I favor Powell's previous album, Music for Rest & Renewal, which I found to be a bit simplier: soft and slower with less instruments and more nature. However, those who prefer their instrumental music to be a bit more lively are likely to enjoy this CD.

Product Description

17-track slice of rawk, a typically uncompromising piece of Sonny sonic fury. If you're remotely familiar with the Vincent modus operandi evident on his last three or four releases, you'll take to this like a diabetic to insulin. Furious rythms, Sonny's impassioned vocals. Stun guitars shredding up the soundscape and cutting off the top of your head. Think early Jeff Dahl meets the "Raw Power" Stooges and the Dead Boys, but with more grit than glam.

A great, swinging Rouse album........2000-08-30

Tenor saxophonist Charlie Rouse spent over a decade in Thelonious Monk's band, and so his individual talent is sometimes overlooked (Monk cast a long shadow). This marvelous 1988 album led by Rouse should testify to his considerable abilities, but there won't be any more; he died later the same year of lung cancer. However, the playing here, alternately swinging and soulful (if you'll pardon the expression) sounds perfectly healthy. Indeed, this album harks back to the classic Blue Note blowing session LP's by the likes of Dexter Gordon and Sonny Clark. "November Afternoon" (which opens the CD), "So Nice," and "Bohemia After Dark," among others, are all muscular, groove-oriented pieces. Part of my love for this album is that I'm not only a sucker for the sound of Rouse's tenor playing, but for the thick, chewy sound of the baritone sax in general, which Sahib Shihab handles here with aplomb. Claudio Roditi burns on trumpet and flugelhorn; the call and response of these three horns is the one of the major delights of Soul Mates. The quiet, contemplative "Bittersweet" is a change of pace, with just Rouse and the rhythm section. "Bird's Nest"----a Rouse original that has no relation to the Charlie Parker recording of the same name----ends the album in cheerful, swinging fashion. Most of the ear-tickling arrangements are by Don Sickler, and demonstrate the authority that small-group jazz can have when done right. The Blue Note feel that I mentioned is perhaps helped by the fact that Soul Mates was recored at the famous Van Gelder studio in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, and engineered by Rudy Van Gelder himself. Some studios seem to have an aura about them. There's also a great flow to this album, one track leading smoothly and appositely to the next. If you like melodic post-bop jazz, get this. In fact, just get it on general principles. You won't be sorry.
