Secret Garden

[insaneneko]

Partly in thanks for all the lovely music I've gotten recently, I wanted to share some tracks from Songs from a Secret Garden, the first album by a violin and piano duo who play lovely and soothing music. I only own two of their albums, this one and White Stones (which I've discovered is in a "have the case but not the CD" state ;_;), and they were both good. One of these days I'll pick up some more of their music.

Nocturne
This is the first track of the CD, and a perfect introduction. The haunting vocals that begin the piece never fail to captivate me. Not to mention the violin that takes up the melody after that.

The Rap
A piece with a faster tempo that is...just nice to listen to. And it's a nice break from all the melancholy of the rest of the album. ^_^;

Sigma
Just plain beautiful.

Music can make the unbearable sort of bearable. How powerful is that?

Dang, you can't play it? I'm not the person to ask, because I don't use WMP. From doing a quick search online, I think there is a way to get WMP to play it with a plugin or something (read this thread (http://www.osxhax.com/archives/000046.html) which may or may not be helpful)...but you should ask someone who uses Windows a lot. ^_^;

I personally use Winamp at work to play mp4 files that I bring from home (it was the easiest solution for me, since I didn't want to fiddle too much with the work computer).
