Album Description
Serenity:Music for Harp and Flute This long awaited CD has a wide variety of soothing music, from John Denver to Pachelbel, Paul Simon to Satie. It has been acclaimed to soothe, heal, caress the soul, and/or give wings to its listeners. The CD has been favorably used to calm and soothe in everyday life as well as during labor and delivery, hospice situations, during transition times in elementary school, as a quieting lullaby in evenings and in Alzheimer wings. Serenity Now. Many have written to say “Serenity” has touched and strengthened their souls. May the music do the same for you. Review: Greg Ozimek, phenonmeNEWS, September 1999 The title is aptly named. Perhaps over 30 years of performing harp and flute together has melded an emotional bond that vibrates between these two women, Rochelle Martinez-Mouilleseaux, harp, Nancy Waring, flute. Legends have sprung from the magic spell of the harp. Serenity casts such a spell which is calming, taming, and introspective. This collection of classic and transcriptions will at least provide supportive background for the settled times of your life studying, reading, and other pleasures. Nancy and Rochelle are both lovers of music and its soothing effects on their listeners. Quotes about Serenity:Music for Harp and Flute “We found the CD-‘Serenity’-to be just as it is titled: calming and tranquilizing. It is very pleasant for the ear and relaxing to the soul, giving you a sense of peace and contentment as you wind down your frantic paced day. It is reflective and uplifting-music to treasure forever. We love your CD.” Brenda and David S “Before I had my copy, I spent many frustrating hours a week commuting on California freeways. Now, I put the CD in and drift away in a peaceful place, surrounded by soothing notes, allowing me to spend that driving time with a feeling of tranquility.” Emily B Executive Assistant “We used the Serenity CD and it always calmed and soothed the Alzeheimer/Elder care adults and babies as well. It especially helped relax them when they were restless, anxious in the afternoon awaiting to go home for the day.” Diana M Care Giver and Assistant Generations Together “With select music (Serenity CD), students were calmed and better able to perform to their ability on tests, as evidenced by higher test scores.” MEA Instruction and Professional Development Conference “Conquering Performance Anxiety, Raising Test Scores Through Music” Hayes G. Dabney, II “Serenity CD incredibly uplifts your soul…very spiritual” Tamara “The CD is so peaceful we have purchased one for each of our four adult children, one for each of our two homes and two more for close relatives.” Michael K Attorney at Law Susan J GM Corporation “The Serenity CD puts people into a state where their bodies can begin the healing process. It empowers artists to do their most creative work." Maryanne B Watercolor Artist “One of Rochelle’s tapes arrived and I took it to work while coding.

It’s such beautiful relaxing music. One of my coworkers thought that was what the music in Heaven would sound like!" Barbara F Registered Nurse “I enjoy the harp and flute mixture of classical and contemporary selections. My massage clients frequently request it. They say it helps them achieve the process of relaxation. Serenity is one of the few CD’s that I never tire of.” Phyllis L Certified Massage Therapist “I play the Serenity CD often because I, too, find the music very relaxing”.

The natural sounds and gentle music creates a healing, stress-free environment perfect for yoga, massage and relaxation. A bestselling classic!

1 out of 5 stars Very Dull.......2007-02-21

I think I am being generous with one star here.
David and Steve excel in some genres but should stay away from pure environmental efforts. The waterfall/stream sounds on this CD are loud, harsh, and overdone. The sounds are monotonous and just go on and on and on until you just can't stand it anymore. I have a fair number of music/nature compilations so I know what I'm talking about...this one becomes just plain annoying after a while. There is nothing soothing or serene about it at all.
If you are looking for the absolute best quality nature recordings blended with music, seek out any of Dan Gibson's work and go no further.

5 out of 5 stars Best CD I've found for getting to sleep.......2006-06-16

I have purchased about a half dozen relaxing/meditative CDs, have a clock with "relaxing sounds", and listened to many more CDs. However, Garden of Serenity is the ONLY music I've found which calms my mind at the end of the day and sends me off into a quick, peaceful sleep. It's almost pavlovian - I hear the first four notes and I'm instantly relaxed. I highly recommend this as a sleep aid.

5 out of 5 stars Very soothing and relaxing the whole way through.......2003-06-25

As a massage therapist I was a little worried about buying this because one reviewer was annoyed by the chimes - but they aren't really annoying in the least. I not only use this for my own clients, but I will put it on for myself when I receive one. I'm going for Volume II.

5 out of 5 stars Garden of Serenity.......2002-07-12

My tri yoga instructor uses this in our sessions. It allows you to breathe with the music at your own pace and is conducive to working toward slower, fuller breaths. The music is very tranquil.

5 out of 5 stars Love it, Love it, Love it!.......2000-05-05

This CD is great for meditation, realaxation, unwinding. I use it with my clients when I do visualization exercises with them, and they love it, too. I am excited to see there is a Part II, and am ordering it NOW!

5 out of 5 stars A musical treat for soul.........................2002-04-04

When I think about "Serenity: Music for Harp and Flute," I imagine Waring and Martinez-Mouilleseaux, with their heads together, over cups of hot chocolate (glasses of merlot?) comparing lists of best-loved pieces and deciding on the perfect order of presentation. Because their collection is so obviously a labor of love. Listening to "Serenity" feels like receiving a gift from a friend. Musically,it is deeply satisfying in its musicianship and diversity. Classics, pop, folk music.. all exquisitely rendered. And there are surprises! The listener who expects Pachelbel will not be disappointed. But, neither will Paul-Simon-lovers! An additional benefit is this: the cumulative effect of listening is much like getting a good massage, in that it lowers the blood pressure, clears the head, and produces a most enjoyable alpha state. Thank you. "Serenity" is both a treasure and a treat.

5 out of 5 stars Respite from the Rat Race!.......2002-03-29

A peaceful and loving spirit flows through this CD. It holds a welcome variety of creative arrangements yet the tunes are familiar. It is relaxing and inspiring. The flute/harp combination expertly and sensitively performed inspires the mind to unwind and let go of the stresses of the day. Great for all ages, calming and uplifting. A welcome time out to regroup from the overwhelming challenges life brings. It will always be one of my favorites, and I am thankful that this CD was created!

5 out of 5 stars Serenity Indeed!.......2002-03-24

Serenity is the key word here. While driving or relaxing, this cd is sure to bring you serenity! I am anxious to see what is next on your agenda. Maybe a Christmas CD? Put me down as your #1 fan.

5 out of 5 stars Amazing!.......2002-03-18

Everyone should own a copy of this CD -- it has been a wonderful addition to my collection. I enjoy listening to it in the mornings before a busy day at work, on the way home in the car, while I'm cleaning and while I'm making dinner. It's a definite must for your home's collection.

5 out of 5 stars Music from the heart, for your heart.......2002-03-18

Serenity is a collection of beautiful music.The pieces are complimentary, thoughtfully arranged,and enchantingly performed. This particular CD has been warmly received all over the world. The depth to which Serenity touches the heart and soothes the soul is most certainly attributable to the thought and effort that went into creating and performing it.
