4.0 out of 5 stars Simbiosis - A peaceful escape!!, August 16, 2000

Simbiosis is a wonderful, one-of-a-kind album. It is such a peaceful escape, you are instantly transported to the middle of a tropical rain forest within the first few seconds of listening to it. And that is actually where you are! Manuel Obregon recorded this CD right in the middle of an actual Costa Rican rainforest!! He brought his piano and other instruments to the jungle and recorded them, plus a wonderful assortment of natural fauna sounds (including howling monkeys and birds) mixed together to make a wonderfully "natural" jungle melody. Get lost in it with pleasure!

Excellent! His music integrates into the forests sounds for a very pleasant hearing, soft but exuberant.

5.0 out of 5 stars A truly exceptional album!, February 25, 2009

This review is from: Simbiosis (Audio CD)

My wife and I just returned from a trip with 16 high school students to Costa Rica, and the bus driver put this on over the bus sound system near the end of our trip. It is an incredibly gentle set of compositions, mixing piano music (in the Wyndham Hill/George Winston style) with natural rainforest sounds. The price on Amazon (from "new and used") is a bit high, but the MP3 album price on Amazon is simply a steal for this wonderful album.
