Music reviews of Moonsung
Music Review: ZZzzzzzzzzz
Rating: 1 Stars
First let me say I agree with some of the reviewers here that this lady's voice is phenomenal, totally beautiful. But this is music to meditate by, booooring is putting it lightly. A good comparison would be like Enya, but without any "pep" whatsoever, totally flat. Add to that the fact that most of the tracks are basically acappella, which makes it even more unbearable. But if you don't mind music to read or meditate to, then you will probably enjoy this incredible voice.
Description of Moonsung
"I ride the waves of each deathly breath / Waiting to be awoken and born by your calling." So sings Sheila Chandra on Moonsung's "Waiting," effectively giving plain words to the actual experience of her remarkable genesis through both breath and sound. Quite simply, Chandra's evolution of making sounds that in turn make music has given her permanent reverberation in a temporal world. A career that began as a teen pop star fronting Monsoon in the early '80s has not only deepened and matured but also broken ground with her last three LPs. It is from these recordings that Moonsung is culled, with the addition of two new tracks. Whether locking into unaccompanied drone, melody based on Indian raga, or revisionist folk balladry, Chandra's mutable voice is an instrument like no other, channeling that which is nothing if not ancient past and prognostication at once. --Paige La GroneGeneral CDs
