11tks/54mins
Music of Harmony. Music which praises the wonderful beauty of this small planet. It contains the morning freshness of an awakening wood, and evening peacefulness of bluish-red sky. This music contains a great number of incredible colors, smallest hues and most fantastic sounds. Joy and harmony is in this music.
Tim Mac Brian invites us to remember this world and look at it again with a pure, not turbid sight. And what a beautiful sight!
Mac Brian weaves a lot of nature sounds into the cloth of his music, which create a unique, natural surrounding. All this is combined with a very hearty music. The sounds contain a softness and tenderness. They call us to distract our attention from our daily activities and to be with it. And this not just a harmonic music - it contains individuality. The sound of the "Entre Ciel et Terre" ("Between the Heaven and the Earth") has something in common with the music of late Christopher Franke, where atmospheric sounds combine with beautiful, romantic melodies.
Performed on various keyboards, the music is solidly composed. Mac Brian's classical "roots" show very well. The music invites us to have a walk under our sky, painted with incredible colors, in this beautiful, fragrant garden named Earth.
While listening to this music the following words came to mind: "Heal this World!"
