5.0 out of 5 stars Phillip Peris' Didgeridoo -- a moving CD, November 9, 2000

By 

Larry Iwan (Rochester, NY USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Didgeridoo (Audio CD)

Phillip Peris is a master of tonality and tempo. He plays with love, wisdom and great feeling. The first two tracks on this CD are long solo journeys. Phillip plays didj and clapsticks. He moves gracefully between slower and faster tempos, accenting the shifting mood with changes in tonality and adding vocalizations exactly when they are appropriate.

He is accompanied on the third and fourth tracks. The third has some exciting percussive rhythm from an instrument that is not familiar to me. There is a harmonic singer or "throat singer" on track four. If you have never heard this, be prepared for a wonderful surprise. Track five is a short "farewell" improvisation that makes the listener wish he had another Phillip Peris CD loaded to play in the next slot.

I have a large collection of didjeridu recordings. This is surely one of my favorites.

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay, but not as good as others, March 5, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Didgeridoo (Audio CD)

The cd is not too bad, however, I feel some songs truly drag out a bit farther than necessary. Although Phillip is a good didge player and has his own style, I find other didge players to be more "accomplished" and interesting to listen to. I would call this cd "average"- okay but not stellar.
