Description:

This album features the rhythms of relaxation, to ease listeners from the active pace of a busy day into evening. This music follows the contours of the heart-its tensions and resolutions, anticipations and fulfillments, hopes and disappointments. Includes the dreamlike tranquility of composers Vivaldi, Debussy, Ravel and Fauré, and provides a palette of gentle and spacious sonic openings that will reflect back to you your own nature.
