Details:
The CD's title song, Heather in the Mist, is an original composition for psaltery by classically trained musician Deborah Brown. Her other selections are adaptations of traditional folk songs that evoke a feeling of relaxation. A sweetness of melody unfolds gently in the transparent, improvisational style that has become her personal hallmark. For this recording she includes several lullabies that can be enjoyed equally by children or adults, because, as Deborah says, "I think we all need and love lullabies." The songs become slower and softer during the second half of the album until, like tender lullabies, they gently fade away.

Deborah says, "I discovered that people who were ill or in pain were able to relax to the point of falling asleep while listening to my improvisations. When several friends said they had trouble sleeping or knew someone who did, I decided to make a CD, one that would reach an audience of people who want soothing music that will encourage them to relax, and maybe even to sleep."
