Medicine for the Soul!!,
By L. G. Roberts (New Jersey) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Gnosis (Audio CD)
When I heard "Pure in Heart" (first track) for the first time, I knew I'd found the medicine I've been searching for. This is truly one of the best Ambient New Age CDs I have ever experienced. Some artists in this genre can be too "sweet" for my taste, and some are frankly trying too hard. This CD has just the right mix of mystery and melancholy---Avgerinos makes Gnosis seem effortless.

Music from Olympus,
By Christopher Albright "Capt. Christopher, Form... (Baton Rouge, LA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Gnosis (Audio CD)
The Greek gods chose this lofty mountain from which to conduct their affairs & rule the mere mortals, below. Paul Avgerinos, brings the sacred chants & royal secrets down to earth for those of us, priveleged to share his enthusiasm for ancient cultures & ethnic diversity. His "Gnosis" CD is the latest in a series of sensually rich aural tapestries bridging the tradions of East & West with his creative sensibilities & technical expertise. The rich electronic & synthesizer fabric is woven together with world artists on various ethnic acoustic instruments to complete the presentation of a colorful aural soundscape to take your ears on a trip to new & exotic realms. Highly recommended that you listen to this with headphones.

A timeless walk beyond the firelight....,
By Michael (Portland, OR USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gnosis (Audio CD)
From the opening tones of "Gnosis" and throughout this work, Paul Avgerinos evokes and brings to fruition the mystical journey that we all must make. One sees caravans on the long walk, trekking the night desert while the stars wheel even beyond their courses, rhythms of life and long tradition urging on travelers in the timeless patterns of their peoples. There is a palpable sense of myth and legend in this music, expressed in the soaring ambient textures, the pulse of rhythms, the plaintive calls of the cantor. The movement of ancient waters, the universal giver of life, is discernible as well. Above all, there is that depth and spaciousness that Paul doesn't just create, it is instead as though he finds deeply hidden treasure and coaxes it to come just to the edges of the firelight where we can see and recognize it, yet the shimmering mystery prevails, that vast knowing which cannot be fully perceived. This is a brilliant work by a visionary composer; highly recommended.
