Free Music Notes for Music From the Tea Lands
Free Music Review: Fantastic
Hit: 5 Stars
I loved this cd from the first listen. The opening track by Zulya is just beautiful. What a gorgeous voice she has. When I first picked up this cd I wasn't expecting to be so enthralled by it as I am. I wasn't expecting either to love the Chinese and Pakistani songs. But it truly goes to show that all music, no matter where it's from, is beautiful and can be loved and enjoyed by everyone, regardless of cultures, if given half a chance. And the Putumayo releases are perfect introductions to world music that otherwise may be passed over. They have certainly broadened my musical tastes and knowledge. The booklet contains very informative notes on each artist and song. I highly recommend this album.Free Music Review: Meditative

My other CDs by Putumayo have been music that you put on while driving down the open road on a sunny day- upbeat, fun, fresh. The music on this CD requires a meditative mood. You wouldn't want to listen to it in the car because all the intricacies would be drowned out by the engine. There is much delicate music on this CD, gorgeous lutes and harps, spine-tingling sundanese metallophones and soft gongs. This CD makes you feel so incredibly good and relaxed if you listen to it quietly in your room. I love it!Free Music Review: Great CD!

If a person is interested in World Music, they should definitely take advantage of the music samples. I was particularly drawn to the last tract (Ujang Suryana) and have been trying to find more in this style .. without much luck so far. To me the last tract brings rememberances of warm and gentle rain. Most of the Indonesian CDs seem to be more of the clanging and banging on the gamelan .. So give the Samples a try before discounting an album.Free Music Review: So Good You Could Drink It

At first i had doubts when i bought this cd, thinking it was going to be a little over the top. I was suprised to find out that I was wrong. All the songs are so light and dainty and beautifully composed. I especially liked Sanjay Mishra's "For Julia" and Ancient Future's "The Empress", but I absolutely loved Lei Quang's "Picking Flowers". This is by far one of my favorite Putumayo albums. I even like it better than Music From The Coffee Lands!
