Music: Recommendations & Considerations

[harrylime6]

Wow!  It doesn't look like many people come here. 
Look at the dates on these posts ... Yikes!
This should be one of the busiest corners of the forum.
Oh well, I'll post some music recommendations and see what happens ...

It's difficult to recommend music when you don't know who will see the recommendation.
If you know the musical tastes of the person to whom you are recommending music - then it is easier to suggest something they are likely to enjoy.
The best way (IMO) to preview my recommendations or the recommendations of others is to go to You Tube and punch in the name of the artist and the title of the song/selection.
Chances are good that there will be a video of the recommended song available on You Tube for you to
audition.

The music I will recommend today is difficult to define.
Let's just call it Serene Music - spacey, languid, floating - that sort of thing.

We'll begin with the Estonian composer Arvo Part's CD "ALINA" - one of my all time favourites.

Next is the American composer Harold Budd and his collaboration with Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois called "THE PEARL".

For our last recommendation we have the 1964 classic "MUSIC FOR ZEN MEDITATION' performed by American clarinetist, Tony Scott , with Shinichi Yuize on Koto and Hozan Yamamoto on Shakuhachi.

That's about all for the moment.

Back soon.

hi all
 Of course if you want some more of Daniel Lanoie of which is his first solo album , which was voted the best  album of that decade , it would be the Acadie album , his music instruments and the whole album for that matter is quite original to himself .
  Another album i came upon is Nina Simonne At town Hall , her musicians knew they had someting good when it was recorded in the fifties . happy listening ..
