This review is from: Oriental Landscapes (Audio CD)

I was looking for some great examples of Evelyn Glennie's playing to show to my daughter who is learning percussion. I picked the Chinese one because I have a background in Japanese culture and love taiko drums, but this turned out to be a little bit too Chinese for me. There was nothing in it that my Western daughter could relate to. I'll have to try another Evelyn Glennie CD.
