Gotta love it,
By Falcon (Selden, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Songs of the Muse (Audio CD)
The Bards are truelly a talented pair. They have a gift for being able to bring their audience on a musical journey, and all it takes is a soft harp and a well tuned mandolin or recorder. Such is the case with Songs of the Muse. This is such a great album to come home to after a long day. Highly recomended, even for those who are not big fans of instrumentals.

Love the Bards!,

Songs of the Muse is an instrumental album that is great fun to listen to! Appropriately enough, I play Muse to help me concentrate or to relax when music with words would be distracting. I particularly like the Bards version of Greensleeves.

Not What I Expected, But Good Nonetheless,

This review is from: Songs of the Muse (Audio CD)
First off, let me say that I love this band. I've seen them live at the Kansas City & Texas Renaissance Festivals in the past and they were fabulous.They have a reputation for wackiness and eccentricity a la a Renaissance Faire answer to the They Might Be Giants. Filking seems to have become a theme with them -- see their hilarious 'If I Had a Million Ducats' on "A Faire to Remember" for a great example. That's what I was expecting here. But this is an entirely instrumental work that while interesting isn't thrilling. Don't get me wrong, these are talented instrumentalists and I did like it quite a bit (despite some very shrill recorder work), but it's not what I was expecting. There's been a lot of mention on Amazon.com of the song "Tolkien" on this album due to the Lord of the Rings craze of late. It's good but not spectacular, and I wouldn't have thought of JRR's work while listening to it if I hadn't known the song title. Guess I'll just be forced to buy "A Faire to Remember." Oh well. :~) |
