Synopsis

Album Description

Inspired by Siddhartha, who learns from the wise old ferryman to listen carefully to the voices of the river until he hears the eternal song of oneness and harmony, Gandalf invites you to imagine yourself in a boat on the Sacred River, letting the music be your ferryman, taking you gently across the water. Gandalf intricately weaves the sounds of acoustic, classical, and electric guitars with keyboard, percussion, piano,and soundsamplers for his enchanting sonic tale.

CD Reviews

A River of Mystic Peace

M. Wagemakers | The Netherlands | 05/19/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The peace I experience whenever I listen to this astounding collection goes beyond words. It's not that I forget all my cares and troubles when I listen to the music. Rather, the music enables me to put them all in their proper place, creating valuable mental and emotional space and thus giving me room for other, often more important, matters. Gandalf's use of various instruments creates a harmonius variation of tonal colour, and the imagery this produces quiets the mind and prepares it for either deeply focused work or pure relaxation. It is soothing, comforting, but also genuinely inspiring."

Relaxing music

"Very calm and relaxing music - it is a joy to listen to such a peaceful work of art and appreciate the excellent use of the instruments that produced it."
