| 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: Peaceful Music I love even the thousandth time We received this as a gift shortly after the birth of our son, and it was a godsend from the start. These aren't the kind of lullabies that make you want to throw the stereo out the window, nothing nearly so syrupy or bland. I don't get sick of them either, because there's plenty of variety. Instead, it's a collection of various artists singing soothing yet really interesting music. George Winston's quiet piano, Bobby McFerrin's voice, they are all songs I might listen to even if we didn't have a baby- but the mood is perfect. We listen to it every night at bedtime, and I buy it for my friends when they have children. Summary: Perfect for babies I bought this CD for my 5 month old daughter. She falls to sleep with it everytime. It's one of my favorites to play for her. Very sweet and gentle melodies. Money well spent! Summary: Soothing for all This CD is great for relaxing and wind-down as well as through the nap/sleep times. My 19-mo-old son and I like it. The music is consistant in tone and rhythm - unlike some others we've tried. Summary: Sure-fire sleepy time soundtrack I can't guarantee that your children will zonk out within 60 seconds of your hitting the "Play" button, but I can assure you that parents will enjoy the music as much as children will. And I would say it will probably take many more listenings for you to get completely sick of it, compared with the more saccharin options on the market. It is a lovely collection, diverse enough to make it interesting through-out, not at all repetitive. At the same time a quiet mood is maintained and each track follows easily upon the one before. One other thing I like about it is that we've gotten many years of use out of it--our oldest son (he's 7) has heard it since he was a baby and still enjoys hearing it. Summary: Beautiful! This is a delightfully relaxing and mellow collection... our son and daughter-in-law are expecting their first child, and this is one of the CDs they will take to the hospital for labor and delivery... a big compliment, indeed. Many, many years of enjoyment ahead. We plan to buy another copy for "grandparent" use, too! |
