If
those three factors are in place consistently on your recordings there is a
very good chance you will garner the praise you deserve and all the respect
from your peers in the industry. You can tick off all the boxes in that
category for Kathryn as well.
Solace of Mountains and Clouds is a
direct reflection of the surroundings of the artist where she lives and creates
all of her compositions. The inspiration of mother nature can be found in many
different segments of the artistic communities. I must say after several years
of listening to instrumental piano and new age music, that the images and music
presented most definitely go hand in hand. The production elements are superb
thanks to the Imaginary Road Studios and the fine stable of artists that
contribute to this and many other recordings. The partnerships created are
absolute bliss, with Kathryn’s recording being no exception.
A few
of my favorites are “Slow Waltz at Summer's End” and “While The Mountain
Sleeps.” The track titles are as moving
as the music. The images created by the titles and music are all at once
prolific, calming, spiritual and rhythmic. There is an innate sense of
musicality and tones emanating from those talented fingers that touch the ivory
keys.
Solace of Mountains and Clouds is
the soul of nature mirrored in the music and the colors, atmospheres, and
vibrations of this wonderful music. It starts by touching all of your senses
then it finds a way to your heart and soul. Any good instrumental music holds
that magic but to do it so well and
for so long is an incredible achievement and a gift to all that have the
pleasure of hearing it.
