| Professional Review: |
| Imagine a party, a musical party inspired by the holiday season. A party that celebrates the universal hopes, dreams and joy animating seasonal festivals the world over - Christmas, Hanukkah, Eid al-Adha, Kwanzaa, Yule and New Year's Day. That is what brought Yo-Yo Ma together with a remarkable group of friends - some old, some new - to create SONGS OF JOY & PEACE. It is Yo-Yo's hope that everyone who listens to this album will hear a song familiar, comfortable and beloved to them as well as discover and fall in love with music that is brand new. |

Written on December 12, 2008 Summary: Relaxing music We have enjoyed listening this CD. The range of performers and their great abilities make it a very good CD. Yo-Yo Ma just keeps getting better and better!  Written on December 9, 2008 Summary: Very sad, Very boring This is one of the most boring CDs I ever listened to! Sounds like long, drawn out practice sessions. Endless thrills and shrills of scales and Ya-da-yahing! Probably very exciting in the music classroom. Maybe it's an experiment in how great advertising can sell anything! Sorry..me.. no ..likey..  Written on December 9, 2008 Summary: LOVE IT!!!!!!!! I cannot stop listening to this CD. It is at times inspirational & other times humorous. Anyone with an appreciation of fine music (orchestral, jazz & folk especially) will love this collection of pieces. YO-YO MA, you rock! Written on December 7, 2008 Summary: A great disappointment I can't be one of the many reviewers giving this CD raves; anyone who does must have given the Emperor's new clothes 5-star reviews as well. This album stinks. With a holiday introduction, a title like "Songs of Joy & Peace", and Yo-Yo Ma as the featured artist, I expected a fabulous Christmas album. Hardly. The song selection and performance is poor to put it kindly. It is as if the producer said, "Hey, I bet we could make a lot of money if we slapped Yo-Yo Ma's name on the cover of holiday CD. But, just for kicks, why don't we pick the most random selection of unrelated songs and perform them in the most off-the-wall manner we can come up with. Cuz everyone knows you can't return CD's!" Well, I was one of the suckers fell for it; I didn't even bother reading the back jacket. Meanwhile, Steven Epstein is laughing all the way to the bank. Though there are a couple of decent songs here, there are also a couple which are so bad you have to skip them to keep from running screaming from the room. Honestly, this CD is a waste of money. Even my grown kids couldn't believe how bad it was; and they generally love holiday music. Save your money. We're going back to our Windham Hill Winter Solstice collection. Written on December 6, 2008 Summary: Great Christmas Music! Songs of Joy & Peace (Deluxe Version) A great mixture of all gendres of music. Different from the standard "carol" fare. A very relaxing listen during the hectic holiday season. |
