Soothing Sounds For Baby: Electronic Music By Raymond Scott, Vol. 3, 12 To 18 Months
from: Basta Records
: :As promised, Scott has grown along with your child. His third and final volume of infant electronica brings together the sleepy melodies and repetitions of the first record with the absorbing rhythms of the second. The music is sophisticated and complete--active musical play perfect for a toddler struggling with the associative prelearning of childhood. Volume 3 also brings Scott full circle within his own musical progression, with the triumphant march of 'Tin Soldier' suggesting a reduced reading of his much-loved standard 'The Toy Trumpet.' Ticklish 'Little Miss Echo' is endlessly charming, ...

Vesperia (Music for Vespers at the First Congregational Church of Holliston Massachusetts)
from: Quirkworks Laboratory Discs
: :VESPERIA, which was commissioned specifically for vespers service at the Holliston church, is divided into four parts of gracious & serene electronic ambience. The disc concludes with a scored reading of a poem by Lisa Louise Indish which perfectly sums up the inspirational tone of Vesperia. The music transcends religious sectarianism, however, and is intended as a soundtrack for anyone interested in the journey inward and the power of thought. It was directly inspired by the writings of Ernest Holmes, Florence Shinn and Raymond Holliwell.
