5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning, June 29, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Einsjager & Siebenjager (Audio CD)
Hardly anyone in the U.S. has heard Popol Vuh, and most of those that have know them from their soundtracks to Werner Herzog films like "Nosferatu" and "Aguirre". This album, from 1974-75, is the best I have heard. This music is quite beautiful at times. Basically instrumental with occasional ethereal (indeed, angelic) female vocals in German. Piano and jazzy drums predominate, with double tracked electric guitars performing bluesy solos on top. Quiet, meditative passages alternate with majestic crescendos - the music is symphonic in scope and execution. The themes of the individual tracks appear to be spiritual in nature and this quality shines through. A fore runner of modern day New Age music, but much more compelling than almost anything I've heard in that genre.

5.0 out of 5 stars uplifting music ., March 9, 2003
This review is from: Einsjager & Siebenjager (Audio CD)
Very original and unlike most of their other recordings. Their playing is very loose here which makes the music very organic. the music is beautiful and uplifting. I like putting on their last song REALLY LOUD as it is powerful and epic.
