5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Music from a Brilliant Guitarist, April 20, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Sweet Dreams: Lullabies for Guitar (Audio CD)

When I heard that Nina Gerber had released two albums ("SWEET DREAMS" and "NOT BEFORE NOON"), I couldn't wait to get my hands on them. Just mention her name to anyone who's heard her live and they can't stop talking about the incredible soulfulness of her playing. It's there live and it's here on these albums. When I play "SWEET DREAMS", the whole atmosphere of the room is transformed. It's one of those albums that everyone loves and wants to keep hearing over and over - IT NEVER GETS OLD. This is definitely not just for children but I can't imagine a better choice of music to play for children! Nina's own two compositions are outstanding. Her choice of material is perfect, each song flowing into the other, maintaining the mood throughout, but with a diversity of feeling that keeps it musically and emotionally compelling. Included is a song by the very talented Barbara Higbie entitled "Heart of Beauty" that Nina plays so beautifully it's hard to describe - you just have to hear this album for yourself!

This is a solo acoustic guitar album. Nina Gerber's style of guitar playing is warm and sweet and elegant. She is a very accomplished musician and this album especially conveys a sence of warmth and positive expression. This is an everybody album and not limited to only children. I have listened to this album more times than I can count and I still love it. When I play it for friends they love it also.
