This review is from: The Divine Feminine: A Musical Meditation on the Mystery and Spirit of Woman (Audio CD)
I like sampler albums, and bought this CD for its short pieces and out of curiosity of the uniting theme. This is dreamy, evocative music. I had never heard John Taverner's Last Sleep of the Virgin -- lovely. And this was an introduction, through the Anrahn, to Christopher Rouse's Flute Cto, another knock-your-socks-off piece. As another review commented, this disc seamlessly blends disparate music into a disc I play often and feel my heart rate slow as I listen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Divine --- feminine or not, August 12, 2007
By 
This review is from: The Divine Feminine: A Musical Meditation on the Mystery and Spirit of Woman (Audio CD)
I don't know whether this album really has anything to do with the Divine Feminine; I think I lack the proper glandular bias to discern that.

Having said that, this collection grows on me, and I find myself enjoying it more every time I hear it, which is fairly often now, as I go about mundane tasks. What impresses me, besides the quality of the performances, is the nearly-seamless transition between pieces of very different periods and styles. It works as semi-background music and also as a musical journey when listened-to properly, with full attention on the music.

I think this is an extremely-worthwhile addition to anyone's collection of serious music.
