"...a rejuvenating oasis of calm...a must for any sort of relaxation or healing activity."

Product Description

David & Steve Gordon continue their acclaimed Garden of Serenity series, artfully blending Elizabethan and classically-influenced music, which is proven to reduce stress, with soothing harp, flute, piano, strings, lute and pure sounds of nature. Ideal for Yoga, Massage or any time you need to relax.

"What could be more peaceful than being immersed in an environment filled with the tranquil singing of birds, the gentle splash of water tumbling into a fountain's basin or the carefree sound of leaves blowing in the wind? The answer is the same soundscape overlaid with the luxuriously peaceful atmospheres of David and Steve Gordon. GARDEN OF SERENITY III, the latest in the pair's highly successful series, is a rejuvenating oasis of calm that pairs natural ambiance with the idyllic sounds of guitar, lute, flute, harp and synthesizers. The music's Elizabethan and Baroque Classical overtones give the melodies a quiet elegance that fits well with the garden theme and the peaceful nature of the music makes it a must for any sort of relaxation or healing activity."

5.0 out of 5 stars Back to the Garden, February 18, 2004

David & Steve Gordon are back with another rare journey into the Garden of Serenity. This venture leads us into another lush corner of the garden, weaving in their signature sounds of nature, bird song, gentle flowing waters, fountains and breezes with lilting classically influenced melodies blending caresses of harp with flute, piano and strings. I have just begun using this CD in my healing work and my clients love it. This is the perfect Sunday afternoon music for just relaxing and reading your favorite book to. Gentle and incredibly soothing, yet enabling the consciousness of the listener to remain awakened and attentive. I highly recommend this CD for meditation and relaxation and thank the Gordon's for continuing to put out the highest quality mind, body & spirit influenced music.

I think that this cd is the best release signed by David and Steve Gordon! Luckily, a friend of mine told me about this cd. I haven't hear this on radios and I don't understand why many labels don't make a proper promotion for their artists...

5.0 out of 5 stars A quick smile and gentle handshake, December 27, 2007

This review is from: Garden of Serenity 3 (Audio CD)

This is not the same pace as either Garden of Serenity 1 or 2 but it is just as refreshing. It is quicker, more uplifting and refreshing, like a quick dip in a cool pond rather than a long warm bath, if that makes sense. I personally adore this album most of all! Love the chirping birds, makes me feel somehow...free...
