 It sounds as traditional japanese should to the american ear. . .

| Eerily strange, but somehow inspiring and disturbing all at the same time. It is a good representation and offers various performances that seem to go together to create one unified CD. Often the individual compilations do not flow well, but this one works. I would recommend it. |

A Nice Introduction
Submitted on: 2006-03-23 |
|
| I purchased this CD in order to find music for a play production set in Japan, and this turned out to be a major source for us. Very pretty and, for a listener unused to Japanese music, perhaps a good entry level disc to purchase as an introduction. |

 Lullaby Review
Submitted on: 2003-07-13 |

I bought this CD. I was looking for the CD with Haru No Umi by Michio Miyagi, but this was all I found and picked it.
Frankly, I'm dissapointed at the lack of traditional japanese songs, such as 'Aka Tonbo' or the much beloved 'Haru No Umi', and even 'Kimigayo' and 'Kazoueta'.
I loved the way they did 'Kojou no Tsuki', it sounds haunting as it is supposed to be. I disliked how 'Sakura' was done, as we have sung a better version in my chorus class ;)
However, I thorougly enjoy 'Umi: Sea Fantasy'. It sounds like something that'd be played at a festival. ..and I love the spooky yet sereneness of the shakuhachi in this piece. Overall, the CD is okay, and if you are looking for calm and serene japanese music to listen to or help you fall asleep (i listened to it last night to help me fall asleep), I'd recommend it. |

Great for relaxation and meditation

| We play this CD in our spa. Its great for relaxation, but not rythmic enough for massage. It's great if you like the music in Japanese Restaurants. I personally think its boring, but serves the purpose of relaxation. |
