"I am purchasing this CD for the second time. One of my friends love it so much that he neglected to return the CD to me. It moved with him to the East Coast! This is one of Hennie Bekkers best... A must have in your collections of music to relax too with that special person."

Serenity for the mind

"If you've been looking for a work of music to take you away from it all, you'd be hard-pressed to find anything more effective than "Mirage". Get this CD, get some time alone, and get ready to do some astral traveling. However, please don't confuse this with your garden variety New Age- this is emotion-packed instrumental music performed on piano & Synclavier that you'll wanna come back to time after time. Relaxing and at times other-worldly but without being weird, this is absolutely wonderful music and a great introduction to the vast catalogue of Mr. Bekker ..."

Not for me

"As much as I enjoyed Jabula from the same artist, I got quite disappointed with this album. I must admit that I was expecting the same kind of music, and so I got disappointed when I found a succession of slow tracks. I mildly enjoyed the first track but to me the rest was simply boring.
I do understand that people may be looking for slow, relaxing music in order to reach altered states of consciousness, but if this is what you are looking for, I already have a collection of CD's that I think are much better at it.
To put it plainly, this album is neither good for active listening, nor is it for passive listening.
I also need to add something: this is the second time I buy a CD basing myself on its reviews, and it it the second time I get disappointed. I wish there would be more realistic reviews out there. So were have the realistic people gone to?"
