Summary: Delightful and soothing
Comment: My husband and I are backyard bird-nerds (my stepdaughter's moniker) and we enjoy the Solitudes CDs with birdsong and music. Dan Gibson's latest didn't disappoint. The new-composed music is refreshing, not at all jarring. Of course we delighted in an entire track dedicated to the Wood Thrush, the most beautitful birdsong of Eastern US birds. As a companion CD to this one, we highly recomment Songbirds at Sunrise. Indeed, it does sound as if you are waking gently in the country, and the countour of the music reflects waking and rising. The addition of occasional frogs peeping is also very nice.
These CDs, when played softly in the background make you feel as if you're outdoors. The birdsongs connect you to nature. The music does not interfere with the nature sounds.
I have found these CDs helpful in lowering stress.
