Editorial Reviews

Veteran folk musician Phil Rosenthal and family present 15 original folk lullabies in this Parent's Choice Foundation recommended and National Parent Publications Award winning album. Although all lullabies, the songs do range from upbeat rhythms to the more traditional slow and tender lullabies. Phil trades off lead vocals with his daughter in some of the songs, introducing a wonderful mixture of soothing baritone, tenor, and soprano vocals. Instruments heard include guitar, banjo, mandolin, mandola, bass, flute, piano, accordion, mandocello, flugelhorn, dobro, and percussion instruments.

I borrowed this CD from our local library and am now buying it because I love it so. Sweet (but never cloying), traditional music with great arrangements, wonderful instrumentation and cool harmonies. It's my current favorite for my 5-month old's bedtime routine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Our baby's favorite cd, December 7, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Folk Song Lullabies (Audio CD)

We bought this cd because it was recommended by Parent's magazine. The melodies are gentle and rich, none of this too sweet or irritating children's music that is so common today. We use this as quiet playtime/ease into nap time music. We really love this cd - it makes our home seem peaceful and full - hard to explain but it's all good! This is smart music - complex instrumentals set in simple, gentle melodies and songs - many classics and some I have never heard. Yes, we listen to Mozart too, but I believe in the Bluegrass effect!
