From my childhood, i was always enamoured with instrumental music. I had a friend from my school days who is not known for his scholastic aptitude. Endowed with a slow mind, we can almost see the cog wheels going round in round in his head, as he faces any simple question. Ofcourse, every answer used to start with a wide grin on his face. One sunday, i went to church with him and the moment he sat before the piano, i was surprised. As i watched , the music came alive...lively and full of vigour, as this little boy started to caress the keys of the piano in a sure yet loving way !! It was my first encounter with pure blissful instrumental music. How i wanted to step into his shoes then !!
So, when ever i had this urge, i went on picking up cassettes and albums of instrumental music. I never tried to learn the nuances of any particular composer or instruments. So, i am at loss to explain any further..
Here is my first upload...Mystic Ocean Melodies featuring London Symphony Orchestra. With a back drop of waves hitting on the beach..and with guitar strumming great compositions of Strauss, Schubert, Chopin, Bach, Beethoven...i found this to be pure bliss. Hope you will enjoy it too..



Here is the link for downloading the album...

Here is one CD of Pan flute. I usually see these pan flutes in Railways stations and no where else, so had a kind of low opinion. But listening to this disc made me change my opinion over night. Music is pleasure in what ever form...and instrumentals are supposed to be the purest form of it.
When i heard the CD, i havent even heard the songs which the tunes were based. Yet it was such a pleasure to listen to these songs...what do i see when i hear these songs ?? Birds soaring in clear blue skies, The lift we experience when plane takes off, the wind against our face as we race on a bike....all signifying the freedom. Hope you will find pleasure in listening to this too...

SF,
Panflutes are widely popular and native instruments of central and south america - they have as much place and regard in central and south american music as the Bansuri has in Indian music.

Thanks for the album!

Bibhas.. Coming from an acknowledged Flutist like you, it is indeed an eye opener for my kind.
Pleasure to share ..they were languishing in my collection for so long.
Good to see you getting active again..

This is a Solo Piano performed by Richard Evans..The album is new generation music, so you get to hear lots of sea sounds..the ebbs and tides of sea in the backdrop.
This is an album brought out by Solitudes Company..of Dan Gibson.
