5.0 out of 5 stars A Soul That (Sometimes) Wails in Darkness, July 22, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Music of Hikari Oe 2 (Audio CD)

In his liner notes, Kenzaburo Oe describes his son's music as that of "a soul of wailing in darkness." This description fits "Grief No. 3," "Grief No. 2," and "Requiem for Mrs. I," as well as a few others, but most of the selections have a kind of quiet joy in them that refreshes the soul. I happen to enjoy classical music very much, especially Mozart and Bach, but the appeal of Hikari Oe's music is universal. I would recommend it to anyone who finds solace in music.

This review is from: Music of Hikari Oe 2 (Audio CD)

I found this CD in an old batch that people had given me. I had no idea that the composer was disabled. I just knew that I loved the music. If you like Mozart, Bach, or chamber you will, too. Warning: Addictive!
