5.0 out of 5 stars Musical Mural of a Life, March 28, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Glory Hope Mountain (Audio CD)
An homage to Rolf Klausener`s mother Gloria Esperanza Montoya, "Glory Hope Mountain" is a wonderfully whole piece, who's craftsmanship is merited by the beauty of the subject. A musical mural tracing a life in the colors of wet forests and travel, this album succeeds in pulling the listener into the narrative without telling them on which path to travel. Lovingly expropriating his mother's varied musical heritage, Klausener weaves in bits of Garifuna and other Honduran styles to build a rich canvas on which to work. With an inviting lyrical complexity that paints pictures both bright and subtle and then spreads them across a landscape of auditory hills and valleys, this is a work that needs to be viewed as a whole rather than broken up into shuffled "chapters". Beautiful, lush, whole.

5.0 out of 5 stars Naturalistic and beautiful, April 4, 2009
This review is from: Glory Hope Mountain (Audio CD)
This album is fantastic. The instrumentation is very refreshing, and the lyrics evoke natural imagery. The album tells a woman's story, conveying the hardship and happiness of a personal journey very effectively.
