I was working on organizing some music files this morning and “Dreamtime” by Cornell Kinderknecht and Martin McCall kept me company. Cornell is a flautist specializing in indigenous flutes from around the world, while Martin is a world music percussionist/drummer. The album appears on my “Best Albums of 2013” list. (http://philmaq.com/2013/12/best-albums-of-2013/) I’m happy to say it’s just as beautiful as the first time I listened to it!
Of course there’s old favorites like “Orion,” which I’ve played many times on my radio shows and appears on my “Best Songs of 2013” list (philmaq.com/2014/01/best-songs-of-2013/), as well as “Solitude.” But other songs reached out to me in ways that surprised me. “Marble Falls” in particular took me to places I didn’t expect—weaving it’s melodic magic between two worlds, the known and the unseen!
This is great music for unwinding, meditation, or a change of peace. (I accidentally wrote “peace“ when I meant to write “pace.” I decided to keep it because it makes sense to me that way, too.) The instrumentals are accessible even for listeners who may not be used to this type of “New Age” music and is highly recommended for anyone looking to explore different styles of music. The music gets deeper with each listen—my favorite type of album!
