Instrumental Evolution--Volume Six.......2006-11-04
I am a Yanni fan, but this music is more serene. There is no one favorite selection. I enjoyed listening to the entire CD.
Incomparable.......2006-05-29
Just got this CD A few days ago. I have been listening to it almost non-stop at work. Just listened to Flight of the Butterfly for what must be the 10th time...and it keeps getting better.
I have been looking for this sort of music for some time...unobtrusive background music...but also something occasionally worth turning up and losing myself in.In a word, it's perfect. Now I must have the other volumes...
More than just a couple of good tracks .......2006-05-29
Like so many others out there, Medhi is remembered for just some of the tunes that you may hear on the radio, by far not his best. Fortunately, he is far more respected, and remembered than many other "one hit wonders". His music is timeless, ageless. This is beauty in the flesh and it speaks volumes for the level of quality of the Medhi Series. Maybe it's first love syndrome but I think it's just a bit more than that. If you like spiritual, magical music, you owe it to yourself to check this album out.
A Breath Of Fresh Air........2006-05-27
I have only heard "First Day Of Spring" off this album,but my christ its amazing along with his other extensive musical catalogue. the song seems to encapsulate everything serene,spiritual and pure into a constant seeping masterpiece,and that justs the song which i believe is a prelude of sorts.its so relaxing and eye-opening at the same time.a pure breath of fresh calming air with a healthy dose of serenity plinking away in the six minute background.
Made me curious enough to buy his entire instrumental Series........2006-05-26
Judging from all of the five star album reviews on Amazon, one would be led to believe that great music is a common occurrence. However, I have found that an album possessing the qualities of true greatness is a rare feat. Though I purchase many CD's and enjoy many good albums, I might discover a great album once every 5 years or so. That being said, I am here to proclaim that "Instrumental Evolution" is fully deserving of a five star rating.
Ironically, I only purchased this album for one song. I had heard "Flight Of The Butterfly" on the radio many times so that was reason enough for me to buy it. Needless to say, I was in for a surprise when it arrived. From the very first note, I was immersed into one of the most beautiful albums I have ever experienced. As I listened to this album, I became aware of how much of today's music (regardless of style) has been watered down into an easily digestible format that is meant to be pleasant. I suppose you could say our music has been overcooked. I like the fact that it has a little ryhthm eventhough it's soothing and relaxing.
On "Evolution" he employs a REAL Orchestra and various soloists. Epic pieces such as "Heavens Caravan" and "Gateway To The Clouds" are passion to its fullest. These suttle and sweeping melodies become a real eye opener for those of us accustomed to sounds coming from a "Sterile" studio environment. For the soloists, his Piano stays in the background and allows the soloists to perform magic whether it is a Flute, Violins, Cello or Guitar.
Unlike the majority of instrumental music which is pleasing but lacking in true emotion, each instrument is given full reign to perform with no boundaries. The flute is beautiful and airy the lower octaves of the cello sound smooth while the violins glide accross the melody with purpose .
Stylistically, the album is near perfect. A slightly melancholy mood permeates throughout with crescendos placed perfectly. The album conveys vivid portraits of loss and the process of healing. Interestingly, "Renouncement" is the most exciting moment on the album and comes in the middle rather than the beginning or the end. This was placed perfectly because each song from there builds in emotion not in volume.
Which leads to the final track "Heavens Caravan Reprise". It plays like a Hypnotic music box that brings back the best memories. An amazing CD and one that has made me curious enough to buy his entire instrumental Series.
