From start to finish, this album touches all aspects of your spirit. "Tree of Life" is flowing and meditative. "Night Tribe" evokes the earth side of our inner spirits. "Passing Fancy" will make you want to get up and dance with it's island rhythms. Rumbel's rendition of "Dona Nobis Pacem" could easily be played at a High Mass. All together this work touches all those places and spirits inside us.

I really love the first track of this CD and was stunned by its ambient tones and feel. However the rest of the CD was a bit of a flop in my opinion.... nothing more needs be said.

I was given this CD as a gift and I definitely enjoyed it. There's no "ground-breaking" music but it is nice for background music. The musicianship is very good and there is a nice variety of styles. I like it better than what I've heard of Nancy Rumbel's work with others.

At times it is relaxing, at other times, uplifting. As is the case with much of what is called New Age, it's a bit full of itself as to its importance.

Don't let that scare you off. At least preview the music. It is is done well.

Would like to hear more oboe, and less of the flute
