'Gentle Vespers' is a timeless collection of beautiful lullabies for all ages. Multi-instrumentalist, Melinda Johnson has crafted original arrangements which feature the concert pedal harp with various recorders, bowed psaltery, cell and percussion. Lyrics for each of these melodies have been carefully researched and included for the listener's enjoyment. These tender songs originating from such places as Ireland, England, Russia, the Isle of Man, even the region of Basque, are intertwined with soothing sounds of night. Crickets, bells, windchimes, rain and distant thunder carry the listener on a relaxing journey of quiet music for all ages. This lovely instrumental recording is perfect for any setting. From meditation to dinner music, for introspective moments or romantic settings, 'Gentle Vespers' provides a rich blanket of nurturing sounds. It is currently in use at numerous hospitals, clinics and spas, where the soothing sounds of 'Gentle Vespers' provide an aid in relaxation and guided imagery for their patients and clients.
