Words can't say how Beautiful this Music really is~~~
~Morgana Le Fae~ (Emilie) | Nova Scotia, Canada | 12/01/1999
(5 out of 5 stars)

"But I'll try my best ~~~ It is one of the most beautiful CD's you could ever hope to hear. Right from the first moment you hear it, every part of you begins to melt, Soul, Mind, and body. It takes you places you never thought you could reach on your own. I have Loved Faeries since I was very little(and I'm only 17 now) and I collect all things Faerie, not to mention, strongly believe in them. and if you'd like to know more about them, if you don't already, I'd suggest to go to "Books", search by the Author, and type in "Brian Froud", and 'Faeries' is what you should see first, your library should have it too, if you'd like to actually read, or look inside the book first. ~"Faeries come from a world where the Whimsy is inseparable from the Wisdom, and where Faeries Dance with Leprechauns."~But anyhow, the title was the first thing I noticed when I saw it in the store, and immediately I asked if there was some way I could listen to it. The guy put it on in the store, and as soon as he did, I froze, and almost everyone in the store stopped to listen to it, I thought that was pretty neat. But weather you're in to this kind of Music, or not, it's something you can't help but fall in Love with. I give it many more then 5 stars."
Beautiful, magical, mystical, and dreamy.

"This is a wonderful CD with eight gorgeous compisitions with sounds from around the globe. The songs are like stories being told to you. Troika are a New Age group being lead by composer David Arkenstone. This CD is a very nice one to play when going to bed because the music is soothing and almost romantic. Teh Magic Birdcage is a dark ambient song with strong Native American influences with Native American flute, drums, and a dark cloudy dusk evening keyboards. This song is kind of sad. The Jewels Of The Faeries is brighter and less melancholy and more Celtic sounding with a hapr and pennywhistle. The song speeds up a bit and is like a song to enjoy on a sunset evening in the Irish mountains. The HEaling Spirits is dreamy with a more Chinese sound with a Chinese harp and Oriental Drums. The Magic Fountains is my favorite song on here. It's kind of both sad and happy at the same time. It's another dreamy song with blipping synths, a beautiful flute, a jazzy ambient sound and a beautiful harp. The Garden Under The Sea starts off as an ambient song and then becomes a sort of upbeat Celtic song with Celtic drums and harp. I love this song alot. It's like going to Ireland on a warm evening. The Ice Faeries has a far more Indian sound with influences from India. This song is a tad bit more ominous but still very nice. The sitar that plyas throughout the song is amazing. This song also has an Indian drum and flute for a pleasant addition as well. The Star Maiden is a return to the more Native American sound that dominated the first track off this CD. This song though similar is brighter and less melancholy than the Magic Birdcage. The Mountain Spirit has a more Japanese sound and a more minor note sound. This song is like a beautiful orchestra playing. This song ends this CD. As you can see, Faeries is a beautiful CD with sounds from all over the world. This CD is perfect to play when going to bed because it's so soothing and etheral. It's not as intense as lets say Goddess but it's still great. I have not yet heard Shaman but I will take a bet on it and review it when I hear it thouroughly. In the meantime, I have 'Faeries' to watch over me."
The ONE AND ONLY CD to capture the magic.

"This is the only CD whose music sounds really magic to me. It is really like opening your eyes to another world. Gary Stadler and Steven Halpern did not do the same for me. I am amazed by the beauty of these sounds."
