Editorial Reviews
About the Artist
Award-winning musician and composer Stephanie Bennett has been called "one of our country's top harpists" (Hollywood Reporter). Avalon, Stephanie's first CD recording on the At Peace Media label, was inspired by Stephanie's travels to Ireland, including an original composition, "The Ancient Fortress" which she composed at the top of 2500 year old Steig Fort in the Ring of Kerry with one of her harps while "contemplating the mystery and timelessness of this beautiful place and wondering about the kinds of people who had been here before me." A native of the Midwest, Stephanie's passion for the harp and composing music dates back to her childhood. She has been invited to collaborate with many musicians and has performed throughout the world including at the Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland as well as in France, Brazil, Australia, Japan, Argentina, Ecuador and Costa Rica. An advocate of animal rights, she has rescued many cats from the animal pound. According to Bennett, "nature is where I sense the divine and infinite."
Product Description
Delight in Baroque classics by Bach, Handel, Vivaldi and Gluck, all selected, arranged and performed by Stephanie Bennett on keyboards, pedal and folk harps accompanied by an ensemble of musicians playing flutes, cello and recorders. According to Alternative Therapies Journal, slow and sedative music, with a specific reference to Baroque music styles, does result in increased relaxation. Music with simple, repetitive rhythms, low pitches and slow tempos using strings and no percussion instruments does help to reduce stressful physiological responses. LUMIERE, Baroque Music for Relaxation by Stephanie Bennett offers Baroque music originally written for a variety of instrumentations (orchestral works, keyboard works, operas, etc.), which Stephanie has elegantly rearranged for harp along with accompanying acoustic instruments. This is classical music with a light, modern touch, designed for relaxation, healing and pure enjoyment.
