Various Artists ~ Peaceful Moods



I am not a big fan of compilations of this type. However, every now and then, someone actually puts a lot of thought into it. Unlike others, this is truly an outstanding compilation of contemporary and new age music. The variety of  compositions are just astonishing, full of delightful melodies. Includes works of great composers like Yanni, Vangelis, John Williams, Ennio Morricone, Rolf Lovland, Jim Brickman, Clannad and others whose name may not be too familiar, but I can assure you, their music is surprisingly beautiful. Summarily, an extremely sweet, rewarding and enriching compilation.
