A Symphony in The Key, Of Sea........2004-04-09
FROM THE TIME I HEARD THE FIRST SONG, I KNEW. I HAVE TO ADMIT, I AM A FAN OF VERNE LANGDON'S STUFF. ALL HIS MUSIC; WHETHER GOOFY, GOREY, OR JUST PLAIN GARDENIAS! BUT THIS PARTICULAR ALBUM SO PUT ME IN THE RIGHT MOOD. SITTING IN MY LAZY BOY WITH MY FAVORITE LAZY GIRL, OR ALONE ENGROSSED IN MY NEWEST ROMANCE NOVEL (YES FOLKS, I READ THEM) KEY OF SEA HIT ALL THE RIGHT NOTES FROM IT'S FIRST TO IT'S LAST. I STILL CLAIM THE FIRST SONG (WAVES OF DAWN) AS MY FAVORITE, BUT ALL OF THEM EBB AND FLOW IN HARMONIC UNISON AND UNITED HARMONY. WHAT MORE CAN I SAY, BUT "THANK YOU MR. LANGDON".
Exquisite improvisational soft piano and sea/ocean moods........1999-08-12
"Key of Sea" is an on-the-mark concerted effort by pianist Verne Langdon, a "gypsy of the music world" who improvises melodies and threnodies with the greatest of ease and enchanting moods. More than "New Age", Langdon's artistry combines one of the most gentle piano "touches" this reviewer has ever enjoyed, coupled with extreme melodic and harmonic know-how in the composition department. Cuts of particular brilliance include "Waves of Dawn", "Gull's Flight", "Moontides" and "Brianna's Dance"; Verne Langdon's liner descriptions of his own works are as deeply moving as the music itself, and gives considerable insight into the artist's intentions relating to his original compositions. Although a studio recording (Hollywood, California's Capitol Records - Studio A), the blend of actual seas with keys is remarkable, and just the right mixture to thoroughly relax and mesmerize anyone within listening range. With this album, Langdon's first on the Dejavu label, a precedent of simplicity and depth have been established which leaves the listener anticipating the next release by Verne Langdon. The artist himself expresses the desire to "compose" rather than "impose", and his noble mission has indeed been accomplished in this gentle, sensitive gift to music lovers everywhere. Such is the stuff of which romantic listening sessions are made; this is one musical journey you'll want to take again and again!
