Label: Nancy
Shoop-Wu, Lei Hoku
Nancy takes her violin and
turns it into a magic wand with a combination of new age and classical instrumental
tracks (except for track 8). She calls Hawaii her home, the island of rainbows.
Her inspiration is derived from her home and the driving force is the memory of
her father, whom she lost at the young age of 12. There is nothing like a deep enduring
love to give you the courage and energy to strive forward regardless of any
road blocks.
On Rainbow Road Nancy creates a masterstroke of
violin music accompanied by some well-placed piano parts and other instruments.
The other instruments are the desserts after the full course meal. Her playing
is graceful and moving as it could possibly be for a violin taking the lead on
a song.
Every track is like a rainbow of colors and as picturesque
as the island she lives on. This is “make you feel good all over music.”
Although this is primarily an instrumental recording Nancy exercises her voice
on “Carry Me Home.” I must say that her vocals are as gorgeous as her violin
playing. The title of the song and the words are a strong statement from a
voice that cannot be ignored and the same can be said for the music itself.
New age and classical are not strange bedfellows they are intrinsically
linked, taking the same foundation to build a tower of sound and delight for
any one that appreciates music. Additionally, music that is spiritual in nature
and relaxes and soothes the soul is something everyone needs every day, whether
they realize it or not. It has helped me for years; it makes me appreciative of
the arts and all the joy they bring to us all. Music is a gift from the heavens
I have no doubt and Nancy Shoop-Wu is one of the angels that is delivering it
on Rainbow Road. She
is “Lele Noa” (English translation is Flying Free) on this excellent recording!
