Product Description This collection of lullabies based on traditional Jewish music is truly a gem. It is filled with the spirit and beauty of these familiar songs, and yet transformed into a soothing contemporary journey into the land of dreams. Both listeners who know these songs and those who have never heard them before will be moved by the gentle simplicity of the instrumentation. Even more important, the CD is perfectly suited for playing at bedtime - peaceful and relaxing to a child's ears. The pleasingly hypnotic arrangements are a testament to producer Tor Hyams' eclectic background. He has succeeded in bringing the modern influences of pop music together with stately chamber music flourishes in a way that honors the traditional melodies of these timeless songs and prayers. --David Scharff About the Artist Producer Tor Hyams (Chutzpah, Perry Farrell, Debbie Harry, Lisa Loeb, Joan Osbourne) has taken a wonderful, new approach to traditional Jewish music by taking the familiar melodies and turning them into lullabies for children of all ages.
