All That's Missing is The Harp

(5 out of 5 stars)
"Büdi Siebert spent some time in Andreas Vollenweider's band -- according to the liner notes, two albums and over 200 concerts -- so it should come as little surprise that this album reminds heavily of the Vollenweider Band, all except the harp. Multi-instrumentalist Siebert performs on marimba, woodwinds, keyboards and didgeridoo, with an international supporting cast on drums, strings, oboe, piano, bass and Ralf Illenberger on guitars. This is a joyful, upbeat music which is relentlessly happy without ever lapsing into being syrupy. Very congenial stuff."
