I was actually looking for music that was very slow and melodic. The music consists of Indian instruments and nice background music but is not as slow as I had wanted. Those interested in a CD with different instruments other than the piano or flute, might like this CD. I will play this in the waiting room of our wellness center and people have commented on it favorably…I don’t use it for massage therapy sessions however.

I fell in love with the santoor after buying this album. The santoor makes you feel like you’ve awoken to a morning sun that has burst out from behind the clouds after a heavy all-night thunderstorm. It feels so crystal clear and sparkling.

THIS AMAZING RECORDING IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES.
THE PERFORMANCE IS GREAT! THE SOUNDS OF THESE INSTRUMENTS ARE VERY INTERESTING I FIND THIS RECORDING CAN SOOTHE MY SOUL AND OF COURSE A HEALING EFFECT,MUSIC IS KNOWN TO MANY OF US AS JUST A MEDIUM TO RELAX AND LISTEN TO THE ARTIST TO EXPRESS THEMSELVES BUT IM SURE THERE IS MORE TO IT.
ITS BEAUTIFUL!

This is such a beautiful album, such pure, deep vibrations that touch my heart and fill me with calm.
I have never heard the santoor played with the Veena and the effect is very interesting and soothing.
Recommended to both classical Indian music fans and people who are just discovering this kind of music.
