Book Review: Well-being epitomized.
Summary: 5 Stars
Listening to these two artists blend their music together is like seeing two brothers joy at having found each other after having been lost separated since birth. Their music and artisry flows together in a wonderful way that creates a mental and spiritual environment that soothes, lowers stress, and sets the mind on the path to well being. This is a wonderful tool for meditating to or resting and recuperating with. It is transporting.
Summary of Music as Medicine
Like a master calligrapher, Tibetan flutist Nawang Khechog deploys his flute with an economy of line and texture. Music as Medicine is the latest offering from Khechog, who has recorded with synthesist Kitaro and Native American flutist R. Carlos Nakai and last year cocomposed the score to the acclaimed documentary Tibet: Cry of the Snow Lion. On this album, he sets his flute up in gentle duets with Nakai and violinist Sandra Wong. Nawang and Nakai have been working together for years and their rapport is a study in nuance as they intertwine lines and play with space on "Harmony in Balance" and "Zen Blues." Music as Medicine is destined for your neighborhood yoga and massage studios, but listen a little deeper. Even though Khechog succumbs to pedestrian synthesizer pads on a few tracks like "Meditation," there's more here than soothing sounds and gentle ministrations. In a more innocent manner, Khechog is sculpting a profound psychological landscape similar to those of Stephan Micus and Meredith Monk. Like those artists, he has a sound that cuts directly to the source. --John DilibertoInternational Books
