Professional Review:
The party line on most Windham Hill products seems to be that it's either the greatest stuff since wave machines, or that it all sounds alike. On a Starry Night, with its collection of world songs and reputable artists such as Flora Purim, Airto Moreira, the Turtle Island String Quartet, and others, does lean toward a seamlessly understated, homogeneous quality that is broken only occasionally by Bobby McFerrin's piece and a couple of others. That said, there can hardly be a more mellow or sonorous album of kid's music anywhere. Starry Night could calm a nursery with no nurses; why, it could even soothe the pained yelps at the dog pound--and turn a freeway full of bumper-to-bumper sour pusses into pussycats. Effective? You've heard of mind control, haven't you? --Martin Keller

   Summary: We Luv, Luv, Luv This Album
I play this every night for my daughter (17 months). I often sleep in the same room with her and really look forward to playing this softly. We even keep the CD player on repeat and I still like this. Very soothing and interesting. I highly recommend this for any new parent.

   Summary: buy more than one!
I first purchased this cd several years ago for myself, it was a wonderful way to relax. When my son came along I put it in his room among other "kids" cds. My son, now age 9,(who won't listen to anymore "kid" cds) absolutely loves it. He has been falling asleep to this wonderful cd for the past 3 years. I loved being able to share "the world" with him through music. Recently we remodeled and unfortunately the cd was chipped! He was heartbroken... so here I am purchasing another! Soothing rhythms, soft voices, wonderful instrumentation. A cd that the entire family will love and not get tired of hearing. Even familiar lullabies are updated very nicely.

   Summary: On a Starry Night
Excellent lullabies...relaxing for both adults and children.
So wonderful to listen to music for children that doesn't leave parents wanting to scream.

   Summary: Relaxing
My baby has not born yet, but I listen to this CD a lot becasuse it gives me peace of mind. I live in Caracas, a City with the most stressing traffic jam in the world. This es the one CD that gives me peace.

Another reason to buy this CD is, if you appreciate very good music, and you think that even if it is music for a baby it matters when its played by real talented musicians, this is the right CD.

   Summary: Very relaxing; great for bedtime
When my little sister was a baby, she listened to this CD every night. It soothed me to sleep, too. Now that I have children of my own, we are getting even more use out of On A Starry Night. When one of my babies wakes up during the night, we rock in the living room while listening to the soothing and quiet tunes on this CD. We have adopted "Here I Am" as our own personal lullaby that I sing to the children when they have a bad dream or are having trouble sleeping. This is a very beautiful compilation and I recommend it to anyone who needs a little calm and relaxation in their life.
