Traditional Celtic music with a brand new twist!\" -- Thengore Mondalf - Im Rhythmus Bleiben\n\n\"Continues the tradition of Gary Stadler with superlative recordings, great musicianship, and heartfelt emotional content conveyed to the listener.\" -- Way Home Music \u0026amp; Books\n\n\"Listeners are transported to the fairy realm in a relaxing, renewing, and uplifting journey\" -- Circle Magazine\n\n\"Stadler once again evokes the otherworldly innocence of the fairies with graceful piano and Stephannie's pure fairylike voice....\" -- New Age Retailer\n\nPianist-composer Gary Stadler began his acclaimed Fairy music series as simple around-the-house piano compositions meant as lullabies for his wife. Their friends loved the songs and encouraged him to record them and the rest is history. You can hear the simplicity of long-lasting love and devotion in these songs, as well as the embodiment of the nocturnal mystery of sleep, as if Stadler was possessed, momentarily, by the friendly sandman, coming to gather the spirit body of his wife and lead her through a magical woods at night, singing to the moon through the shadowy trees. Fairy HeartMagic finds Stadler teaming up with sweet soprano Stephannie and harpist Lisa Lynne to make music more lush and involved than past Stadler Fairy albums, but no less assured, with Lynne's elegant harp work bringing Stadler closer to classical music respectability and Stephannie's vocals providing a Celtic, Enya-style romanticism.\n\nThe album opens with Lynne's gently cascading harp notes and Stephanie singing a summons to the dancing space of the nights spirits: \"Dancing A Spiral we wing unaware \/On faery night wings our songs fill the air \/ Making a circle of magic and light\/ Watched silently by the fay of the night.\" The more hauntingly simple and emotional pieces such as \"Sa'brooke\" work their emotionally cathartic magic through Stephannie's beautifully sustained vocal notes, which wash over Stadler's string and piano arrangements like a warm, flowing wave.\n\nThe fairy night air is a lot like being underwater, so thick with magic you can climb just by flapping your arms or reaching for the stars. While the more lushly orchestrated pieces in Fairy HeartMagic are as wondrous and as enchanting as one might expect from the album title, the more restrained solo piano instrumentals like \"HeartMagic\" and \"Deanash\" are special standouts, with Stadler showing us why his original lullabies catapulted him to fairy-niche stardom. Immensely melancholy yet happy, it's deep, classical-style mood music that's also light as a feather, \"Deanash\" gathers many of the elements we associate with escape, love, and longing for something just out of sight, the twinkle of a flying fairy out of the corner of our eye, the exotic unfamiliar, uncanny strangeness of the enchanted woods at night. No harm can come to you with Stadler's warming, anchoring low-note piano. All you have to do is close your eyes, hug the pillow a little closer, and let the mag! ic of the Fairy Heart sing you sweetly to sleep. -- DailyOm\n\nProduct Description\n\nAcclaimed composer Gary Stadler (Fairy of the Woods, Fairy NightSongs) takes you further into the world of ancient Celtic lore, featuring extraordinary \" Enya-esque\" vocalist Stephannie and Celtic Harpist Lisa Lynne. Together they take you on a soul-healing journey into a place where innocence and wisdom are one. Listen, and your heart will be renewed with a mystical beauty.\n\nFrom the Artist\n\nIn the making of my first CD, I longed for a beautiful female voice to accompany my music...it can be such a delicate instument; alas, at the time it was simply out of the question. The completion of \"Fairy of the Woods\" opened the door to my wonderful encounter with Singh Kaur. Togehter, she and I created my second CD, \"Fairy NightSongs\"... but sadly my dreams were silenced by her untimely passing.\nIt's been two years since my last musical offering. During those years, as I searched to find a \"voice\" again, my close friend Joss Price repeatedly hinted that I should meet her young sister, Stephannie. With that meeting the magic instantly gathered and coalesced... \"Fairy Heart Magic\" was born!\nAlmost simultaneously I had the good fortune to meet Lisa Lynne, the incredible Celtis hapist who has graced this CD with her expressive and sensitive talents. Many of the pieces on this CD are sung in a language that you'll not understand...it's an ancient Faery toungue reborn, given to Stephannie in her dreams. This magical language perfectly manifests my desire to utilize voice for its musical qualities, while freeing the listener to create his or her own peresonal imagery and meaning.\nOnce again I share the magic with you.\nFind the key, the secret held within you,\nLet me show you the heart of Faerie...\n- Gary Stadler\n\nAbout the Artist\n\nAs a pianist, composer, songwriter and producer, Gary Stadler is a strong influence in the genre of contemporary \u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00004Y6OZ\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: 4EKGU900FG6N_ns\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Gary Stadler|Stephannie\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio CD\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
