Product Description
CD Description
Instrumental Dreamland is a collection of soothing songs for relaxation and bedtime. The first all-instrumental album from the label, it is the 6th release in the award-winning and best-selling Dreamland series, which has long helped parents around the world ease their children to sleep. As always, the colorful CD package features informative child-friendly notes about the origin of the music and featured artists, as well as Nicola Heindl s distinctive artwork. Instrumental Dreamland features exceptional renditions of such classics as Brahms Lullaby, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and What a Wonderful World. Putumayo scoured the world for music that incorporates relaxing instruments such as the harp, piano, acoustic guitar and kora. Artists include Malian griot and kora master, Balla Tounkara, Hawaiian ukulele virtuoso Jake Shimabukuro, Brazilian guitarist, Reginaldo Frazatto, Jr., Irish multi-instrumentalist Seamus Egan and American pianist Michael Allen Harrison. As Putumayo Founder Dan Storper explains, these selections were chosen for their calming effect and appeal to children and adults alike. An instrumental lullaby CD has been the most requested children s album since we began the label.

Great relaxing Music CD disguised as a Children's album
14 April 2012
Format:Audio CD
Okay, I have to be upfront about this. I LOVE the Putumayo compilation CDs and have for years. I especially love the Putumayo Kids series, which is a great way to introduce world music styles to children and yet not bore their parents with "kid's stuff". There are also a few other benefits (mostly to the adults):
1. You get to discover new artists and seek out their other CDs. (The package lists the source of each of the licensed tracks)
2. In many cases - but not all - the label donates a portion of the net proceeds to a charity related to the theme of the album.
In the case of this particular album # 2 above does not apply but #1 is one reason to get this.
Now as to the music: It's great and - though kid friendly - and nice music to put your kids to bed with, it works for adults too! I've been playing the album to help me ease into sleep and it works. But it's also great to play in the background over Sunday morning coffee. There are a few common lullabies included ("Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"; "Brahms' Lullaby", but there are also tracks from Brazil and Japan and two from Hawaii (including one with my favorite artist, Jake Shimabukuro (the Jimi Hendrix of the Ukulele).
Another well done Putumayo release you will play again and again and again and.....
