Free Music Notes for Putumayo Kids Presents: Asian Dreamland Album
Free Music Review: Lovely music, but very limited selection of "Asia"...mostly Japanese
Hit: 3 Stars
It's a lovely, soothing night-time or calm-time cd, and we're a big fan of Putumayo in this house. My complaint about "Asian Dreamland" is that it should almost be called "Japanese Dreamland." The tally:
Japan: 6
Tartarstan: 1
Tibet: 1
India: 1
China: 1
The Japanese music is very pretty, and has some great world influences, but overall the cd gives a very imbalanced view of Asian languages and music. I would have liked to see more Chinese and Korean music, especially, given the large population of Korean- and Chinese-Americans in the US. It would be great if this cd gave my kids a window into Korean and Chinese culture...as it is, it's just a window into Japanese culture with a couple of other songs thrown in.
I'd like to see a volume II with a better, more well-rounded, selection of Asian lullabies and music.
