Details:
The Calming is the final installment of Patrick Burke's well received Bullfinch Trilogy. As the name would imply this is the most tranquil of the three and Burke has made a special point of writing music which is highly introspective and engaging. This is one of those CDs which will grow on you a little more with each listen. It has the effect of defining a time and place in your life.

It is nice that sound samples are provided on this page but be aware that the music featured is linear-that is, it doesn't necessarily end up where it began. So the last half of the song is as important as the first. Stories are told, conclusions are reached.

Patrick Burke's Bullfinch Trilogy as a whole defies the current New Age stereotype in that the music is not simply lovely background fluff (not that there's anything wrong with that...). There is variation, personality and most of all drama in the theme and mood of each collection.

As the listener you are given the wonderful choice of letting the music float by of its own accord or, if you prefer, really focusing on the finer details and subtleties.

The Calming will give you time to catch your breath, but also to be inspired.
