Ambient Beauty.......2001-10-24

A beautiful series of compositions, stripped to their essentials. Haunting and mesmeric, the tracks on this album are much more than 'background music'. On the contrary, they steal the listener away into an imaginary world.

3 Pianos Too Short.......2000-04-18

After listening to Music for 3 Pianos, I found I wanted more. It's disappointingly too short. The moods created are not as synthy as found on Lovely Thunder or White Arcades, nor are they as upbeat as found on Luxa or Glyph. "La Muchacha De Los Suenos Dorados" is my favorite. Is is haunting and glowing and makes me think of a very large blue glass chandelier that is pulsating like a jellyfish. If you like the music of Erik Satie or the early piano of Roger Eno, or even John Field, you'll like this.

Music For Three Pianos.......1999-12-20

No, it's not "The Pearl" of Budd's musical works, but it is enjoyable listening in places. I found some tracks laboring. The last track on the album is stunning.

Very beautiful melodically.......1999-05-13

Although short, I thought this CD was very beautiful, especially the last piece, La Casa Bruja.

Perfect, soulful, reflective dinner music.......1998-12-18

I like the idea of the title of this CD belying the simplicity of its music. Three minimalist pianists come together and produce what one very competent musician could have done by himself. The result is some very sensitive pieces that are more melodic, but not as ambient, as those on "The Pearl." Each of the six compositions has its own feel, but the overall project does not suffer. The CD lasts about as long as it takes to eat dinner, and gets my highest recommendation for mealtime music.
