I've been listening to Suzanne Ciani's music for 15 years now, and truly she is one of the best artists of this "New Age" genre. I own most (if not all) of her CD's.

Generally her music is quiet, warm and inviting. Very easy to listen to, very beautiful, very melodic, very pleasant, very relaxing - but often not very flashy or exciting.

This CD however is truly an exception. A real stand out. It is just as warm, just as pleasant as anything she has ever done. But unlike many of the others (IMHO) THIS one truly sparkles with excitement from start to finish. It grabs your attention and won't let go. Even the weakest tracks are spectacular.

If you have not tried her music before, this is one of the best places to start. If you are familiar with her music, but have not heard this one, then by all means treat yourself to Hotel Luna. You won't be disappointed.

I don't gush like this about a recording often, in fact this is only the second review I've ever posted on Amazon (after being a regular customer for years). I wouldn't recommend this CD so highly if I didn't really mean it. I've been a connoisseur of this type of music since the early to mid 1970's, and I would place Hotel Luna among the top 5 of my entire (and rather large) collection.

The tracks: "Hotel Luna," "Ondine," "Love Song," "Belcanto," and "L'Azzuro" are wonderful music to relax to. I could listen for hours... These tracks in the CD are also great music for making love...

"Rain" is especially good for when it is cold and rainy outside, heavily overcast. You feel as if you are following raindrops as they fall and tumble from the sky, one after another.

Beautiful music. Beautiful woman. Oh yeah!

What can I say about this wonderful artist? Suzanne Ciani is who I would aspire to be, her music is so enveloping. I love playing piano, and Suzanne plays the type of music I could listen to all day long. The beauty in her music, the textures, the positive vibes I get from it, it's better than meditation. Congrats to Suzanne for another winner!

No matter how many times I listen to the CD the music is always beautiful, soothing, relaxing. Close your eyes and your ears will take you far away. A must have for the collection.
