5.0 out of 5 stars
If you want to send yourself to a calm place without being new-age.,
This review is from: Akemi Naito: Mindscape (Audio CD)
Woods, hilly grassland, gentle waves maybe, but no dolphins. No, no dolphins. Mindscape takes you places. Calm and serene but avoiding new age banality. Akemi Naito's work is modern and beautiful. In it's spirit it reminded me the music of the soundtrack master Riyuichi Sakamoto, but if to describe its genre, it is modern classic rather than pop. The musicians are serving the music well. I especially liked Memory of the woods with beautiful marimba playing by William Moersch.

Akemi Naito's Mindscape,

This review is from: Akemi Naito: Mindscape (Audio CD)
Akemi Naito's new CD isa wonder! Each of the 5 selections are utterly original soundscapes.The first, Memory of the Woods for solo marimba, beautifully performed by William Moersh, combines deeply resonant tremolos seamlessly with magical melodic fragments into a seamless whole redolent of pine,moss and juniper. A solo accordian piece, Sanctuary, performed by the Italian virtuoso Claudio Jacomucci, uses the instrument in the most novel ways to create a unique poetic inner landscape. The tour de force on this CD is the closing piece, Months--Spaces for Zodiac for Satsuma biwa,electronics and chanting.Ms. Naitohas conceived of the elongated biwa as a kind of musical spaceship, hurtling through the cosmos, zodiac by zodiac in musical setting so evocative that it makes all other such pieces seem mundane and umimaginative by comparison.
I cannot recommend this CD highly enough for hose looking for a new kind of experience in sound.
