Customer Reviews
Life should be this beautiful!Review by Tina Leonard, 2005-04-14
I love this artist and her work is sublime . . . peaceful, relaxing, lushly beautiful yet never overdone. Some of the most lyrical and beautiful pieces the ear will ever have the pleasure of hearing.
Provocative and eerily beautiful!
Review by Brianna Neal, 2003-12-31
This album with a deceptively simple title is actually a rich and provocative tour de force by Carol Tatum, harpist and guiding force behind the Angels of Venice. Here, the innovative composer and one-woman-band performs all the accoustic and MIDI instruments herself, overdubbed track upon track to create an orchestra of sound around her clear, clean harp-playing. Depthful, mysterious and mellow, her mature compositions are consistently rewarding, affecting the listener on a deep and personal level. The style of her elegant, smooth and often spooky pieces is much like the gentler work of the full Angels of Venice ensemble, but nothing is missing on this solo release. I don't normally care for covers, but Tatum's arrangement of "Nothing Else Matters" is perfectly suited! "Parson's Farewell" is a moody, semi-exotic, modern arrangement of a Renaissance dance, something that Tatum does very well both here and on her other albums. "Starshine Lullaby" and "Non Allegra" are more straightforward harp songs, reminiscent of the sweet style of harpist Lisa Lynne. The apt title of track #2, "Persentio", is Latin for "to deeply feel" and that is how I like my music, whether as a player or a listener--deep and heartfelt. These qualities are Tatum trademarks and one of the reasons I so enjoy her work! To hear more of her lovely and intriguing compositions, try also "Angels of Venice", "Awake Inside a Dream" and "Music for Flute, Harp and Cello" by the Angels of Venice.
Amazingingly beautiful...
Review by A. Robinson, 2003-02-15
This is a wonderful album! Very peaceful and relaxing. Perfect for soaking in a hottub with wine and a friend... I won't bore you with details but the track Nothing Else Matters is worth the price alone!

Review by Jeffrey A. Hintz, 2002-03-10
After several weeks of playing carol's music, I still look forward to the next opportunity to listen.
She provides an unusually relaxed, yet provocative atmosphere. I eagerly await any new releases of hers.
