Product Description

Rediscover the magic - Become filled with exquisite beauty as you journey into a mystical land of dreams. This new collaboration from bestselling composer Gary Stadler (Fairy HeartMagic) and Australian vocalist Wendy Rule leads you through landscapes of forest, deep into the heart of nature. Those who are familiar with Gary’s previous albums will recognize the soulful beauty of his piano based soundscapes. To this Gary now adds artful Cello, Uilleann Pipes, and classical guitar. Combine that with the magical voice and gentle guitar of Australian singer/songwriter Wendy Rule and the lovely Celtic harp of Lisa Lynne, and the result is absolutely breathtaking. While their music can be compared to Enya or Loreena Mckennitt, they have crafted their own special style. Come along with them on this serene and spellbinding journey, as images of the ancient Celtic Faerie realm come alive once more and touch you with enchantment.

This is the most "Gothic" or "dark" sounding album of Stadler's. I'm not familliar with Rule's other work, but this disk is my favourite of the Faerie series. It's absolutely gorgeous, with transcendental musick and divine near-operetic aethereal vocals atop. She does sound like a Fae queen. I would recommend this to anyone who embraces the more dark side of Fae; someone big on introspection and meditation. This is a great release.. thanks you guys for such a gift.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enchanting & Exquisite, November 2, 2004

This review is from: Deep Within a Faerie Forest (Audio CD)

I am in love with Gary Stadler's new release "Deep Within a Faerie Forest". It is absolutely magical and Wendy Rule's voice is nothing less than enchanting. I had never heard her music before but now am beginning to explore that more deeply as well. These are Gary Stadler's very best songs in my opinion and this record really transcends even the amazing Fairy-themed releases he has put out previously. Exquisitely beautiful.

This review is from: Deep Within a Faerie Forest (Audio CD)

This is definitely my absolute favorite of Gary Stadler's CD's. This latest collaboration with bewitching vocalist Wendy Rule takes Gary's enchanting music into a whole new dimension, a somewhat darker place within the mystical Fairie realms. Gary Stadler has made some incredible music over the last decade with some pretty spectacular female vocalists including the late Singh Kaur on the dreamy Fairy Night Songs and Stephannie on the magically inspired Fairy Heart Magic (my favorite until this one). But Deep Within A Faerie Forest is more hauntingly beautiful and more deeply moving and stirring than his previous releases. Rule's vocals are sensuous, lush and quivering with a fantastic intensity while still remaining diaphanously radiant and pure and the lyrics are just extraordinary. And Gary's piano work combined with Lisa Lynne's harp has never sounded better. Each song possesses a unique quality, like individual fairytales woven into a sparkling magical veil, each with it's own distinct feeling, taking you deeper into the mythic. "Midwinter" is my very favorite with lyrics that just want to make me run into the forest and never return. Thank you Gary Stadler for making the Faerie realms more and more real with each new album. Ooops ! Are those wings coming out of my shoulders ! Magick Happens !
