Spiritual Haven
by Russell Suereth —
The relaxing music uses ethnic instruments and unusual rhythms blended with modern sounds and the sounds of nature.
The basis for much of the music are the sounds of Western acoustic instruments — piano, oboe, bassoon, guitar, viola, cello and French horn — augmented by a variety of traditional ancient instrumentation from around the world.
Suereth brings his sound into the contemporary realm with the addition of the hang drum, synthesizer and unusual rhythmic patterns that sound Mideastern one moment and Pacific-Rim oriented the next.
