CD ReviewsFrom Solo Piano Publications Kathy Parsons | Florence, OR United States | 08/30/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) ""Between Earth and Sky" is a series of "musical landscapes" by Austrian-born multi-instrumentalist Gandalf. Using a musical palette of both electronic and acoustic instruments along with voices, the sound is full, rich, and colorful. In his travels, Gandalf has been touched by the realization that far more things unite than separate the various people and cultures of the world, and his goal in composing and recording is to create music that dissolves boundaries. Folk elements are woven into a symphonic structure, giving Gandalf's music a unique sound. Until this release, his recordings were mostly available in Europe. Gandalf plays various guitars, sax, piano, keyboards, mellotron, balaphon, and percussion. He is joined by White Horse on cello and vocals; and Peter Aschenorenner on flutes, sax, and backup vocals. Sounds of nature are also woven into several tracks. Each piece flows into the next, making this a sonic journey to another world or another reality. Citing individual pieces doesn't make sense for this album since it was conceived as a whole experience, and you can't always tell exactly where one piece ends and another begins. As the album evolves, various musical styles flow in and out - some more rhythmic and even tribal, while others are serene and introspective. It's a fascinating musical journey that is both soothing and uplifting. Real Music's Robin Algaze outdid herself on the artwork - a beautiful job!" Escape from stress Cedric Bronswinkel | The Caribbean | 11/10/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "Very beautiful and relaxing music. You are transported from your day to day world and float back to a world of relaxation and tranquility." Gandalf Between Earth And Sky Elaine Beard | Adelaide,South Australia,Australia | 02/04/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "Gandalf delivers another CD that transports you to a place of serenity and peace.I love his work!"
