Buy Now	Peace on Earth: The Best of Tingstad & Rumbel Christmas (more) »rank: 16496 by: Eric Tingstad, Nancy Rumbel : :O come all ye high-end retailers - rejoice! Your holiday soundtrack is upon you! These gentle instrumentals were cherry-picked from the Grammy award-winning duo's best-selling Christmas collections, The Gift and Star Of Wonder, and also offer two previously unreleased bonus tracks, O Come, All Ye Faithful and Catalan. The music of Eric Tingstad (guitars, synthesizers) and Nancy Rumbel (oboes, English horn, ocarinas (!), synthesizer, chimes, piano) exemplifies the tasteful, complacent, unassuming esthetic peculiar to certain publicly-funded and widely syndicated radio shows. The artists themselves refer to their style as American acoustic (despite the synthesizers) and like the works of pianist George Winston, their ...
Buy Now	Vivaldi: The Four Seasons (more) »rank: 6718 by: Sarah Chang : :Vivaldi has been accused--rather unjustly--of writing the same violin concerto over and over, but no one can deny that the Four Seasons are quite different from the others. Described as the first examples of program music, they evoke the sounds of nature so realistically that one can hear the thunder, the wind, the rain, the singing of the birds, the murmuring of the brook, the barking of a dog. One also hears the sounds of humanity: bagpipes, hunting horns, harvest dances, even shepherds snoring. To 'better explain the music,' Vivaldi wrote a descriptive sonnet for each Concerto, heading every section with the salient ...	Buy Now	Aerial Boundaries (more) »rank: 6407 by: Michael Hedges : essential recording:It's been called the album that opened 'a new chapter on steel-string guitar playing,' and it's unquestionably one of the most groundbreaking albums in acoustic guitar history. Though Hedges had released the excellent Breakfast in the Field on Windham Hill in 1981, the Grammy-nominated Boundaries came as an unexpected revelation in 1985. On stirring, complex compositions like 'Rickover's Dream,' 'Spare Change,' and a deft instrumental reading of Neil Young's 'After the Gold Rush,' Hedges unleashed a stunning new vocabulary of finger-tapping, hammering, and harmonic slaps--processed with electronics and reverb--that still resounds today in the playing of artists from Ani Di Franco ...
