SILENT PORTRAITS PART 1
This is a fantastic album to listen to late at night for having a good night's rest! Its like a dive into the dream world of sauvage. Imagine the wilderness and the uniqe places of Africa. Much of this musical tapestry is somber, moody, melancholy and atmospheric in nature. Some of it's structure is almost classical in nature and global/world music sense (particularly the opening track /title track with it's African rhythms). This album offers Vangelis's finest mood music in a dreamscape moment.
There is some goodies in this album including rare moments like Silent Portraits part 1 and 2. Part 2 is a rythmic piece almost 11 minutes in length, building around electronic percussion and halfway adding a wonderful synth-layer on top. Part 1 is a slow (electric) piano piece of just over 9 minutes, slowly building with added flute-like synths. Great moments...
If you want to hear Africa and the wilderness, this is it.
