Beautiful.......2007-02-01
I owned this cd years ago and had it stolen from me. After looking for years I have just found a copy of it on Amazon. The price of the copy is well over $100.00. I struggle week to week to pay bills. This cd is so profound that I have spent the money requested to replace this cd. I think that says it all.
Beauty for all ages.......2005-11-08
What a wonderful album, well thought out and beautifully executed.
Akira Inoue, a Japanese musician, and David Rhodes, a British musican (best known for his longstanding collaboration with Peter Gabriel), have collaborated before (on the wonderful but hard to find "Head, Hands & Feet". For this album, based on an idea from Akira's aunt, they wrote musical accompaniment for a wonderful chldren's tale - "Snowflake" by Paul Gallico.
The package has two CDs - the story is narrated by Peter Gabriel in English on one CD, and by Akiko Yano in Japanese on the second disc. All of the music on the album was written by Inoue and Rhodes, and Rhodes sings all of the English songs on both discs.
This is gentle, peaceful, comforting music. In Mr. Rhodes' own words in the liner notes, "Although an apparently simple tale, it has immense charm and depth of feeling. Its message of necessity for courage and belief, in the face of adversity, is salutary...I hope that as my three young children grow, they will come to enjoy Snowflake, and her journey, as much as I do now."
A wonderful album to listen to, with a child, as you read the book together. Alternately, a lovely, relaxing respite from the world. Enjoy!
