Very classy acoustic/folk instrumentals

"Having tired of the current pop music scene, I was looking for an new genre of music to adopt. I was introduced to the Gourd label when someone gave me a copy of Tree of Life as a Christmas present around 1992. To me it was a musical revelation. It was acoustic, it was folk, it was classical, and it was hip all at the same time. I purchased Autumn in the Valley and to this day it is one of my favorites. It is an exquisite listening experience. I didn't stop there, though. I have since bought nearly every cd on the Gourd label and will continue to buy their products. It is the quintessential contemplative, quiet-time music. It always puts me into a beautiful place.Buy this cd and you'll be sure to buy more..."
Music that is precise, delicate, sensitive and sweet

"I'm a traditional mandolin player, and I think music doesn't get any better than this album. Highly recommended."
