New Age Music

PostHeaderIcon Natural Side of Music

Some of the artists we write about find their inspiration by discovering the scenic wonders here on Earth.  Natural compositions having both peaceful and majestic themes recalled from an individual and local perspective can be very inspirational indeed.

Ontario Canada is the geographical location of a New Age artist title bringing a beautiful listening experience to a worldwide audience.  Showing a fine music observation of the abundant natural beauty that surrounds everyone each day, here is a nice album where time was given and attention was paid while orchestrating their scenic recollections.

Bruce Mitchell is a composing musician blessed with a natural talent for bringing out the best of what mother Earth has to offer with the just released New Earth Goddess album on the Millennium Label.  His music compositions have a great distinction of being the feature TV soundtracks for Nature Watch & The Global Family in Japan’s multi language International Public Broadcast program ( NHK ) becoming a prime time success in Europe, among other countries.

Bruce first began with albums  Hidden Pathways, Dancing on the Edge, and The Gathering,  relying on rich orchestra movements to translate his natural music abilities.  Celtic Destiny & Celtic Sanctity  are also consistent with his prior work and shown with just a touch of Celtic influence and now leads to his current release.

New Earth Goddess  is a  10  song exploration into the hearts and minds of ten charitable goddesses who provide a ( song subtitle ) depicting the gift endowment held within each individual song.  Bruce once again engages his friend and world class flutist Ron Korb, who likewise solidifies the project playing concert flute, bass flute, and  2  exotic bamboo woodwinds Dizi & Bansuri, with both having ancient origins.

New Earth Goddess by composer Bruce Mitchell and co-musician Ron Korb represent skillful craftsmanship in composition and piano skills of one, plus equally strong woodwind skills of another.  Their performance gives a dramatic looking through the lens glimpse into the naturalistic side of music by powerful symphonic expression, choir entries, and harmony rich vocals.

Flowing song  Athena  grants ( inner wisdom )  by the brass horns that open eyes, ears, and minds to a mid tempo classic presentation of piano and flute melody backed by an orchestra landscape full of strings and winds that exhibit nature as pure scenic ambiance. 

The display of lighter airy moments at times nicely build into full thunderous entries, symbolic that smaller streams do trickle into larger rivers, which then flow with increasing momentum until reaching the greater oceans.

 

Persephone  vocalizes a moderate pace in ( transformation ) where changing North to South seasonal winds are recalled by moving harmonic vocals,  while gentle peaceful winds are heard by flute and piano duo, whispering in timely unison with the lighter vocals. Brigit  implies a more noble statement in ( stand for your beliefs ) with deeper percussion and melodic piano passages alongside bagpipes, oboe, and woodwinds, while  Aeracura  opens with a much quieter beginning to ( unfold & blossom ) considering the melody soon orchestrates in a dramatic ascension, opening right along in time with fragrant vocals.

Damara  suggests a gentler mindset for ( guiding children )  by lighter tone in flute melody set behind piano chords and soft xylophone runs, implying a gentler hand is always wisest when caring for the younger ones.

Maeve  ( cycles and rhythms ) in an Epic way when piano and flute take on a dramatic performance with one another, creating a natural ebb and flow between the two musicians, leading to the conclusion that Bruce and Ron have succeeded by becoming a constant and enduring source of inspiration while performing their music, much like the Earth itself.

    I agree with your review; I absolutely LOVE this album!

    One very intriguing thing I’d like to mention: you get a very different experience when you listen to the album at a higher volume than when you do it at a lower volume.

    Both ways are fabulous, but they engage a different set of emotions. The louder volume really brings out the goddess’s power and leaves you feeling transported, empowered, hopeful.

    It’s almost like buying two different albums for the price of one.

    By the way, it’s the same for Bruce Mitchell’s previous album, Celtic Sanctity, so it appears to be a special aspect of his composing. (His are the few New Age albums that I want to blast, not just play, through my car audio!)
