"I was reading the description of Leo's music, and it captured my attention something that said how each track could be used as a movie theme. I thought it was just some empty marketing deal, but I decided to get the music. And let me tell you.. Does not dissapoint!!!



This is not boring new age of neverending atmospheric sounds and effects bore to death. This is an intense musica experience, with great arrangements, performances and layer over layers of creativity. I love the mixture of world music with the piano as lead instrument. But most of all, the melodies. THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL AND STRONG.



This is Leo Perez' third album to date. He has two prior works ("Piano Pictures" and "An Earth Thought". This is by far my favorite, and the one that has more instruments and work. You MUST check it out if you like movie music, or contemporary composers such as Mike Oldfield, David Arkenstone, Vangelis, Hans Zimmer, etc.



The music is so "visual", that it will fuel your imagination and emotions intensly. I do think the title is very appropiate: tt's got me dreaming of wonders!! high five for this one!!"
