Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Truly a classroom favorite!.......1999-09-21

I use this album in my classroom when I study Shakerism with my students. They love the soothing, melodic hymns of the Shakers, and even request it long after we have finished with the unit!

5 out of 5 stars Great arrangements - excellent guitar and strings.......1999-05-06

Like the Shakers, sometimes somber, sometimes "kick-up-the-heels" dancing, this album has a wide range of mood and tempo. If you like guitar and strings, as well as spatterings of dulcimer and other "Celtic" instruments, you'll like this collection. I found the contrast of the tracks refreshing, a reminder of the way life is. Unlike the Shakers, I hope these guys have many more "children". I'm going to try some of their other albums.
