13024 SUNDANCE
SEASON - R. CARLOS NAKAI
A beautiful meeting
of American Indian music with the New Age, with the Navajo flutist recreating
the Sundance ritual in sounds that seem quiet and distant at first but
remain in the heart for a long time. A serenely exhilarating experience.
11040 CELEBRATION
- DEUTER
The pulse is gentler than that of the fashionable minimalists but
the impulse of this music is nevertheless one of urgency. Using a variety
of percussion and other instruments, this favorite New Age composer
comes closest to pop in this vibrant 1976 recording, released for the
first time on compact disc in stunning sound.
