Rainbow is another music album produced by Jia Peng Fang after his previous one "River". Actually this title "Rainbow" really suits the album because you will be overwhelmed by joy and peace. As "River" is using lots of Minor Keys to express the mood, "Rainbow" uses more Major keys and quicker bits to express the joy from the writer. I really love this album because it is an album with colors of heaven. And the last song is entitled "End of the Rainbow" definitely not means this is sad or over, but one should remember that at the end of the Rainbow, there are invaluable treasures out there-----joy and peace.

This is one of the most soothing CDs that I own. I listen to it to calm myself, or to help me concentrate on my homework. I'm not quite sure what emotion I feel when I listen to this CD, but I like it. I really recommend this CD. If you can't get it on Amazon.com, check around different spiritual shops in Carmel, if you are in the area. (That's where I picked it up.) The musicianship is amazing. Once again, this CD will clam and soothe you, and you will be very relaxed by it. In other words, don't listen to it while you're driving, you might get a bit TOO relaxed at the wheel. Pick this CD up! It's a purchase you certainly won't regret. ENJOY!

I had never heard of Jia Peng Fang and didn't listen to Asian music, then I bought this album. This man is a musical prodigy. The utter skill and talent that he so gracefully displays in his music changed forever my view of asian music. All of his albums have been supremely produced with a deft modern touch, while not forgetting the pure essence of the past. I won't waste your time...just buy it! I now own all of his albums and they are all equally wonderful, especially "River." Absolutely fantastic and extremely well produced.

A coming home . . . beginnings, innocence, gentleness, love, hope, happiness, sunshine, flowers, trees, rain /rainbows, and a soft breeze; forever in my heart. Hauntingly beautiful. Thank You.

The music presented on this cd is like a very high class oriental restaurant catering to non-oriental customers. There's excellent cook, beautiful presentation, but lack of authenticity. Try listen to Chen Jie-bing and Yu Hong-mei. Pure soul of er-hu. Crystal sound of music. Thousands of years of happenings exposed. There's contemporary. And there's ancient. There's simple and beautiful and nostalgic. And there's new age. Pick your mood.

Beautifully bright and colorful as a rainbow, this album is aptly named. But know that the melancholy sound of the erhu will be expressed as well. This is a very high quality and moving recording. It's well put together, and it shows. Track 4: In The Garden is the most upbeat track here, while the others are softer in their design. If you are looking for beautiful erhu music, you have come to the right place. In addition to this album, check out River, also by Fang, Asian Blossoms and Road To Oasis by Missa Johnouchi, Spirit On Two Strings By Jie-Bing Chen, and String Glamour by Yu Hong-Mei. May the erhu deliver delight and calm to you, as it has to me.

I am very pleased with the C.D. I've wanted to own that music for some time now and now I have it to enjoy! Also I need to mention that there was a problem with the first C.D. sent me, it wouldn't play properly and of course the tune that was defective is the one I bought the C.D. for! I let amazon know about the problem and i'll tell you unequivacilly, that never have I had such a fast, caring, hassle free resolution to the problem as was my experience with amazon. I had a replacement C.D. so fast and free return shipping with an apology I'm still amazed. thankyou amazon and thankyou "rainbow"!!!!
