4 out of 5 stars quiet, beautiful, many moods.......2005-01-25

This disc is principally harp and flute playing the artists' own compositions. It features a variety of moods, which I find by turns entertaining and frustrating depending on what I'm doing when I listen. There's a new agey spacey piece, middle-eastern and oriental influences, celtic stuff, kinda what you'd expect. It's all well played and well recorded. I bought this disc directly from David Michael, who was playing solo harp for anybody who wanted to listen on a ferryboat crossing Puget Sound one day. I liked it well enough to find myself on Amazon checking to see if there was more.

5 out of 5 stars World Fusion Music showcasing the harp and flute........2004-06-23

I've received this as a gift from my thoughtful sister Mimi for a special occassion.. Delightful, upbeat, joyous sounds including (but not limited to)tabla, esraj, nylon and steel guitars and the main players of various world flutes and celtic harp. There is even the bouzouki! The liner notes remark: Romantic World Fusion Music.I'm enraptured as I love pan flute, tabla as well as various harp. I never thought I would find them on the same cd. If you like upbeat new age, not monotonous but lyrical, then this is Highly recommended.

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful Music.......2000-12-09

I first heard one of the tracks on this CD on a National Public Radio show called Echoes. From the first moment I was eager to buy a copy for my own music collection. -- Since that time, I have given several copies as gifts, and received accolades for my thoughtfulness each and every time. -- The music is just so gorgeous that it resonates with you. I found myself listening to it while I put my baby to sleep, while I cook, in the car, in the bath, after a long day...It always rejuvenates me. My husband AND my mother both love it, too. -- It is the best $15 I have spent on music in a long, long while. Get it. You won't regret it.
