Search - Alquimia & Gleisberg :: Garden of Dreams

Enter a secret world - In an enchanted garden, fairies and fireflies weave their stories of myth and mystery. The angelically haunting voice of London-based vocalist Alquimia blends exquisitely with the dreamy symphonic landscapes, shimmering harp, flute and piano sounds of German composer Gleisberg. Both are well-established artists in Europe who are known for their live performances during the popular summer festival season. Together they take you on a regal-ethereal journey in the tradition of Enya, Gary Stadler and Adiemus yet with their own unique spellbinding style. Alquimia?s romantically poetic lyrics and bewitching vocals seem to dance upon Gleisburg?s luxuriantly orchestrated and artfully layered arrangements. The result is a special magic that will caress your heart with a dreamy rhapsody of a long-forgotten time when magic was real. Come along with them, close your eyes and the veil is lifted into an unseen world of timeless beauty and heaven-touched reverie. "With their first album for Sequoia, gifted songstress Alquimia and composer Rudiger Gleisberg transport listeners to a place of fairytales, folklore and daydreams. GARDEN OF DREAMS has the same sort of enchanting, Celtic-inspired quality that has made Gary Stadler's fairy-themed albums so popular. The ethereal soundscapes feature an exquisite blend of harp, piano, orchestral strings and keyboard, all interwoven by Gleisberg to create a place of magic and mysticism. Alquimia's vocals are fragile and pure, yet filled with an intoxicating sort of warmth and emotion that grabs your attention and lulls you into a dreamy reverie. If you recognize Alquimia's name, it may be from the compilations she has appeared on, including both CAFE DE LUNA albums." ~ Music Design In Review
