Product Description
The music of Christoffer ‘Hird' Berg is an exhilarating example of the wonderful relationship between the attentive listener and the thoughtful music maker. It's very hard to imagine that this fine musician and accomplished producer is only 21 years of age!

Not so hard to imagine though, is that he is extremely sensitive, compassionate and very excitable. A charming young man actuated sometimes more by emotion rather than reason! The heedful hearkener will no doubt familiarize him or herself with the persona of the Hird.

This is the reason why we relate to music so passionately. It's simply an extension of whom or what we want to be also.

The Benin-born, Paris-based singer Angélique Kidjo has become the most popular African female artist on the world-music scene. This compilation contains 18 tracks from her five CDs released between 1990 and 1998. An electrifying performer fluent in French, English-jazz vocalese, and her country's traditional zilin vocal techniques, Kidjo often sings in her native Fon/Yoruba language. Along with her husband, bassist/producer Jean Hebral, Kidjo conjures up a zesty mix of funk, Latin, jazz, gospel, Caribbean zouk, Congolese rumba, and Afropop grooves. Kidjo covers a lot of ground--from Afro-pulsed renditions of Jimi Hendrix's "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)" to her indigenous take on George Gershwin's "Summertime." The rising hip-hop/gospel diva Kelly Price lends her sanctified sound to "Open Your Eyes," and Carlos Santana's bluesy guitar lines illuminate "Naima." The Tanzanian chant "Malaika" is dedicated to Kidjo's idol, Miriam Makeba, while "Senie," a spare track with background vocals and drums, is a shout out to the great Togolese singer Bella Bellow. Of course, this collection also contains Kidjo's most popular dance hits, including the infectious "Batonga," "Agolo," and the classic "Aye." This fabulous package shows why Kidjo is the belle of the world-music ball, with a host of fans from Cassandra Wilson to Branford Marsalis. --Eugene Holley Jr.

She has a great and unique sound. She gives her all in performance on CD.

5 out of 5 stars delightful.......2006-06-08

i really loved it. her style is unique and that is what draws me to her music.

5 out of 5 stars Passion @ its finest.......2006-03-13

The best of Miss Kidjo! Buy this music.Peace of mind will follow!!

5 out of 5 stars Blend of Africa, Europe, and America.......2006-03-01

Angelique Kidjo's music is a blend of African (where she was born), European (where she lives) and America (where she draws much inspiration). Don't waste too much time trying to categorize it - just enjoy it as it is excellent. Her cover of "Little Wing" very interesting and her own compositions are good. The beat is so good that you don't mind if you don't understand the language of many songs.

5 out of 5 stars Best of the best.......2005-08-15

If you are new to Angelique Kidjo then this is the best introduction to her range and power, spanning the wide spectrum of her styles from her African roots to more European/American influences. If you are new to African music, this is an easy introduction, and if you have other of her albums you'll want to add this.

My only complaint - it was released before Black Ivory Soul, so doesn't include her more Brazilian music, which I love. Her voice is astonishing, her talent unique. I was lucky enough to see her live in Santa Cruz California a couple of years back and she could have filled the auditorium with her voice alone, without the aid of a microphone. She is one of those rare people who truly can sing astonishingly well. She blew me away.

4 out of 5 stars Hird Moving On.......2004-11-09

This CD took me by surprise. Nice blend of jazz, downtempo and housey tracks. Yukimi Nagano Is on a few tracks. Her voice is silky smooth and perfect for Hird's production. The first 3 tracks will get you. The truly stand out tracks are:

Fading Blues
Moving On
Keep you Kimi
I love you my
Getting closer

THe only reason that the cd does not get 5 stars is that there are a couple of tracks that don't flow with the mood the CD sets. Other than that it is well worth the purchase.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Cool Techno-Tribal Groove.......2005-03-01

Wow ! This is a real departure from Zingaia's earlier releases and I love where they take me on this new musical adventure. Super cool techno-tribal beats, world rythyms and sampled voices from Africa and the Near and Far East blend beautifully. This release really transports me into a whole other world. While I really love the vocals from Abbi Spinner and Katlyn Breene from the previous releases, this new drum heavy trance inducing excursion from Zingaia is a complete a joy and an amazing listening experience.

1 out of 5 stars Dissapointing!.......2005-02-16

I might like this album better if I didn't already have a fairly large collection of albums by Putamayo World Music which are much better than this! The reason I mention that is that this album reminds of the things that company releases, just not nearly as good.

I have both of their other releases which are superb! They are all about Sacred Sex and praise the Lady and the Lord. This album is bland and boring compared to the other two. The only good thing I can really find to say about it is that it might be enjoyable to drum along with it.

However, I have several other albums I like better which are also good for drumming along with. If thier next album isn't any better I will have to revise my opinion of Zingaia!

5 out of 5 stars Soles on Earth is Out of this World!!!.......2004-10-27

This latest release by Zingaia (their third) is vastly different than their previous releases, both of which I absolutely love. Where their first release "Beneath the Veil" is a trance journey into the seductive heart of the Goddess, and their second release "Dancers of Twilight" featuring the alluring vocals of Abbi Spinner, further develops the original theme, deepening and expanding the voyage into musical spirit; with their latest release "Soles on Earth" Michael & Katlyn Breene and crew launch into a tribal poly-rhythmic trance dance groove that is no less than phenomenal. Middle Eastern, East Indian and African rhythms combine with sampled vocals from around the world to produce an album that sets the mind, body and spirit free to dance joyously to the pulsing rhythms of life. Definitively the most eclectic of their releases yet, Soles on Earth will stir your soul and get your feet moving. I give it my highest recommendation.

4 out of 5 stars More than Good!!!.......2001-10-30

Oleta Adams is like few other vocalists. It never fails but exterme talent and musical integrity are never fully appreciated. I first met Oleta in 1989 at a club in Dallas. She was performing at a friends birthday party. At this time she was relatively unknown outside of Kansas City. I knew upon listening to her that she was special. Time passed and suddenly she has a mojor hit with "Get Here". From that moment I have folled her every musical step. Movin' On shows that great artist can be slowed but not stopped. This CD has her skill shine above industry producers with vocals, keyboard playing and composing. "New Star" and "This is Real" are classic songs both lyrically and vocally. I have yet to hear an R&B artist articulate the soul and wholesomeness that comes from Adams' work. This CD does have a bit of useless producer polish that doesn't add to the vibe. Nevertheless, she overcomes it all; As she has in performance and on other recordings. Popular or not, I hope her music continues to flow to us true fans. Peace.

    I bought this on a sort of a whim. The store was playing some of it, I was interested and needed to get something... well, interesting. I like piano tunes, but not the sappy sort and the guy in the store was convinced me to get it. I had never heard of Myleene Klass but I'm real glad I got this CD. Linkin's Park Krwlng is one of my favourites, and she gives other classics a kind of a spin. I recommend this strongly if you like Maksim.

    A friend plays this music while she's painting and let us borrow it. I can definitely see how she becomes inspired while listening to it. The string arrangements are perfect for letting your mind and creativity wander to new places. Sometimes we just put track one on repeat.

    5 out of 5 stars Impossibly Cool........2003-03-20

    Really. Great. Maybe Moby is more suited to orchestral sometimes, this can be a little 'whiney'. However, it's a great expansion on Moby's earlier work and also 'Play'. Try 'Everything Is Wrong' if you like this and haven't already heard it.

    5 out of 5 stars WOW!.......2002-05-14

    I ordered this on a lark thinking it would be an interesting listen at the very least. I'm so glad I gave it a try, because it's really a terrific recording. Imagine Moby's more mellow compositions given a first-rate string treatment with a bit of percussion and you've got a good idea of what to expect on the CD. It's been sitting in my player for several days now, and I like it more with each play. If you enjoy Moby's chill-out works like Novia and Porcelain then you'll be delighted with this disc.

      The first time I heard "What If" I was hooked. I immediately become one with the album and felt the message he was sending. I recommend the cd to anyone who is wanting to feel closer to GOD and might need a little inspiration.

      5 out of 5 stars One of the Best Christian Albums of 2004.......2005-08-05

      Jadon Lavik's Moving On Faith is an addictive CD. I purchased this cd last summer, and instantly fell in love with it.

      The lyrics AND the music are so wonderful. Highlights on the album, for me, are Following You, Saved By Grace, Redeeming King, How Majestic, and Nothing But The Blood. (Although I enjoy all the songs on the album.)

      I am eagerly waiting for his second album.

      5 out of 5 stars Classical to catch the pop ear.... .......2004-09-30

      Others have commented on the technical aspects of this; I'd like to talk about the cultural aspects of contemporary classical music and Miss Klass' interpretations (which are very beautiful...).

      Myleene Klass is doing something the traditionalists have abandoned: she's making classical music accessible to a contemporary audience. With many kids, you say the words "classical music" and they turn off. They're not interested. But Myleene Klass, Vanessa Mae and others are trying to reverse that trend.

      Classical traditionalists are missing the fact that classical music will cease to be a viable art form if new listeners and artists aren't attracted from each generation. Most classical musicians these days are working in the entertainment industry, producing soundtracks for games, movies and TV. There's not much market for classical composition outside of these industries. Fortunately, that's where today's budding musicians are getting exposed to classical music. But Beethoven and Mozart are not accessible to many people.

      That's only one reason why artists like Myleene Klass are important. (The fact that she's technically competant and an excellent compositor is an added bonus.) Art must evolve, too...

      Besides, Mozart and Beethoven were the hipster bad-boy pop stars of their day. They were sexy, cutting edge and daring. They would both hate the pillar they've been put on, and throw screaming tantrums at the dusty way they've been turned into inviolate idols. They jammed on other composer's music (AKA variations), just as modern electronic artists mash and mix contemporary work. I think they'd be happy to have Miss Klass and her wonderful versions of their work.

      1 out of 5 stars crap crap crap.......2004-09-24

      i wish people like this would stop "making music." this chick, charlotte church, and andrea bocelli is WHAT"S WRONG with classical music. dumbing down bach for the masses is disrespectful to all true classical musicians, composers, conductors... etc. this is such crap.

      5 out of 5 stars I've had Goosebumps for weeks now.......2004-06-05

      When I first heard this amazing collection of both classical music and a little but of hip-hop, I was mesmorized. I listen to this day in and day out. Beautiful songs, consisting of Toccata and Fugue, For the Love of a Princess (From Braveheart), Allegretto, If You're Not the One, The Heart Asks Pleasure First, Moonlight Sonara, Krwling (From Linkin Park), Pavane- Moving On, Adagio (Edgar Cello Concerto), Sarabande, Now We are Free (From Gladiator), Gymnope`die- Live the Dream and a BONUS TRAK, the classical version of Moonlight Sonata. Each and every one of these songs has a little twist on it, by Myleene Klass. As a classical music lover, and a hip-hop fan, this is the perfect CD for everyone wanting to listen to something new. I myself am a classical music player, I have played the piano for 14 years and have never heard anything like this. So take it from me, this will be loved by children and adults alike.

      5 out of 5 stars Splendid collection of Klassical music from Myleene Klass.......2004-02-11

      Formerly of the now-dissolved British bigender pop group Hear'Say, Myleene Klass turned from post-Spice type pop to classical, a big shift considering the genres involved. Her instrument's the piano and she does have a symphony orchestra backing her up. Her selections straddle classical, pop, and even soundtrack scores, with arrangements done by herself and Nick Patrick, and bolstered by the Telephilmonic Orchestra.

      "Toccata" is Johann Sebastian Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor. Accompanying the symphony and Myleene is a light drum machine not as boisterous as Massive Attack.

      Myleene next gets the ivories around the sad but romantic "For The Love Of A Princess," the love theme from Braveheart, one of three soundtrack themes she does. The orchestra's backing helps the atmosphere of this song, as does the light drum machines towards the end. "The Heart Asks Pleasure First" from The Piano, and Michael Nyman's score, is truly a showcase for Klass for the first minute before the orchestra kicks in. And I never saw Gladiator, but she does a Myleene Mix of "Now We Are Free", meaning some light drums and a Benedectine-type choir.

      "Allegretto" is from Karl Jenkins' Palladio and this is more conventional than the way left-field version done by Bond on their second album Shine. Done with lots of feeling and uptempo without the oontsa-oontsa techno beats.

      Myleene does an instrumental arrangement of Daniel Bedingfield's hit single "If You're Not The One." Her piano playing matches Bedingfield's falsetto in the chorus section. I like this better than the original due to the lush string arrangements. I like her rendition of Linkin Park's "Crawling," titled here "Krlwng," but then again, I haven't heard the original and never intend to. I'll bet it's way better. Light drum machines present in this one.

      "Pavane-Moving On" is taken from Gabriel Faure's Pavane, Opus 50, a melancholy and reflective piece, that is until the orchestra takes over in the second minute.

      "Adagio" is taken from Edward Elgar's Cello Concerto in E Minor, Opus 85 and "Sarabande" from Georg F. Handel's Suite No. 11 in D Minor. The strings oft-times sound like what Bond did with Zeppelin's "Kashmir", a fierce jerking back and forth of strings.
      There are two versions of Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata," one which the light drum programming, the other, a bonus track, without. Both showcase Klass's piano work.

      "Gymnopedie-Live The Dream" is taken from Eric Satie's Gymnopedie No. 1, which Charlotte Church used for "From My First Moment" on Enchantment. However, Klass whispers some words as she plays in the beginning: "Did you ever stop to think what gives you strength to live another day? The breath in your body, the kisses you feel. It's all so simple, but never real. Maybe the strength you strive to show is so deep within. But it's true, I know. Welcome love, however far it seems. Go live the dream."

      I've devised a Cartesian system for the wave of neo-classical music prevalent right now with two dimensions, vocal/non-vocal and progressive (mixed)/conventional. Despite the brief spoken words in "Live The Dream", Klass is more on the non-vocal/conventional quadrant but due to her covering soundtrack scores and popular tunes and the use of drum machines, she's not as far to the right of the quadrant as Eroica Trio, whereas neo-classics like Brightman, Church, and Hayley Westenra would be in the progressive/vocal quadrant, diametrically opposite Eroica Trio. However, Klass has the looks of a Maxim or FHM model, so if we use that in the measure of progressive vs. conventional, that might move Klass more left of the axis.

      A worthy debut from Myleene Klass, helping to define the face of neo-classical today, and that's not just Hear'say (or do I mean hearsay?), that's plain truth.

      5 out of 5 stars Best Contemporary Classical Ever.......2004-01-17

      This album is surprisingly beautiful (I discovered this CD thru a friend's recommendation-thanx MO, it's worth the shipping,lol). I liked the movie themes a lot especially the gladiator theme (the chants and the fusion of instruments made this soundtrack exceptional). Her version of Toccata is even better than Vanessa Mae(i hope i'm right).I think the best track in this album is either Gymnopedie or Pavane(It's the best version i ever heard to be honest).Great for chill-out moods, great when your stuck in the traffic, great when you're preparing a meal or having a meal. There's also a surprise cover of linki'n park's "Crawling" which i find very powerful and moving. Obviously, the tracks are composed of popular old tunes but given new interpretations. It seems that these are the pianist's favorites and as such, it is subject to be one's own
