Boring, Repetetive, Made-for-TV Movie Theme Music

"If it doesn't bother you to listen to the same maudlin, overly sentimental musical phrase over and over and over and over and over again, ad infinitem, by all means, purchase this album and enjoy. Be forwarned, *both* songs on this album contain the aforementioned same musical phrase. You may find yourself wondering if your CD player is just stuck.The music is reminiscent of the soundtrack to a made-for-tv movie in which a young mother dies of cancer in the autumn, leaving behind her mourning husband and two small children - just WAY too sentimental, "sweeping" and "sweet" sounding to be taken seriously.If you are looking for pleasant listening music and are into musical minimalism, try some Eno, Glass or Arvo Part. There are composers out there who are doing FAR more interesting things with the technique of repetition. Don't waste your money on Aeoliah."

"I've heard many mediocre piano albums by various contemporary artists/composers. However, this album by Aeoliah, is truly an outstanding album. It evokes feelings of the neo-classic era and radiates musical images and the genius of such brilliant composers as Franz Lizst, Chopin, and Gabriel Faure. Angel's Touch flows with an elegant style and grace, with beautiful piano melodies woven in and out of finely orchestrated strings, angelic choirs,and harp arpegios, brining back the romance of the classic era but with a new, more contemporary twist. A very refined work that touches the heart deeply with its elegance, depth, and profound beauty."
