 Unwind, transend, lose your stress with the best December 3, 2007
This CD is masterful. It includes variety while maintaining a tranquil tone. I bought this along with the Rampal "Japanese Folk Melodies" CD, and am happy I have them both. They will provide many hours of pleasant escape. Highly recommend!
 I highly recommend this CD November 13, 2007
Japanese Melodies for Flute & Harp was recommended by a friend. While this would not typically be my first choice for a CD purchase, I found the CD to be a great choice. The music is relaxing and tranquil. It feels as if you are transported to another time and place. I play this CD often on Sundays while reading the Sunday paper. If you are looking for a CD that is a good value and beautifully done, then you can't go wrong with this one.
very pleasant October 4, 2007
This cd is "as expected".It is very pleasant and easy listening,this is my first foray into this type of Japanese music and I must say I was pleasantly surprised.I'm encouraged to try some more of this music sooner or later.I think this is a very good price for this also,easily worth the price.

Jean-Pierre Rampal, besides being an incredible flute player, was obviously fond of Japanese folk music. He conveys this beauty in these incredible renditions of Japanese melodies that are both breathtaking and beautiful.
I won't deny the fact that it's clear that Rampal is playing on a European style flute. It's very obvious. However, does that stop these tunes from being amazing? Absolutely not. The Western harp doesn't change anything too. The mood is perfect, and Rampal's drastic differences from low notes to high notes (besides being very difficult and executed perfectly) give the music a Japanese feel. Yes, that's a harp, and yes, it's a Western flute, but the result is simply breathtaking. The mood is perfect, the music is beautiful, and the playing is flawless.
It's not played on a Japanese flute, but it's just as beautiful. It's different, lovely, and a wonderful disc to listen to at any time. At this price, it's a DEFINITE buy. Enjoy!
He must have been a Japanese person in his past life! April 11, 2007

Jean-Pierre Rampal loves traditional Japanese music and it shows in his work.
In a couple of tracks I felt certain notes were not Japanese enough, and that's why I gave it 4. Maybe he meant to play it like that. I don't know.
I don't care what year it was produced in, this music is timeless and relaxing. I play it when I work on my digital art. It's not suitable for everyone, I have to admit, but for those who like world music and instrumental Japanese in particular, they'll appreciate it.
