5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, balanced Japanese flute music with water sounds, March 12, 1999

ldc2920@eznet.net (Western New York State) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Oriental Sunrise (Audio CD)

Oriental Sunrise combines shakuhachi and koto flutes with water sounds (a stream and rain) and bells and chimes to create a beautiful, flowing, well-balanced CD. In four parts, the transitions from one track to the next are smooth. The mood is relaxing and peaceful throughout. This CD is excellent for meditation or unobtrusive background music and for massage. It centers me when I'm working and is a favorite with many of my clients. I recommend it unreservedly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, October 31, 1999

Brian Hann (Northern California, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Oriental Sunrise (Audio CD)

This is my very favorite shakuhachi album and, in fact, one of my favorite albums of any genre. It is peaceful, contemplative, and avoids the discordant shrills that are sometimes a part of shakuhachi compositions. Highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars a nice change, April 2, 2001

"jessi_lune" (Brantford, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Oriental Sunrise (Audio CD)

it was so nice to get some Zen music that didn't degenerate into piano and synthesizer fluff by the second song. I have been looking for something like this for my yoga sessions for over 2 years. This music stays traditional, and has a calming effect. Lovely transition between pieces! after awhile, the soothing music becomes a background murmur and allows me to focus upon meditation, writing, reading, etc.
