I'm a beautician and I've bought the CD for a new massage treatment that I offer now. The pieces are very relaxing and really "in the river". It splashes as meaning the melodies are varied and very nice. The music gives a positive mood, but acts in any way intrusive or annoying (often annoys me, for example, this esoteric relaxing music to death.). You can listen to very good, but also entertained well next to it, without having to then have to turn off the music. Therefore, the is very suitable as accompaniment to a nice meal, or when you have visitors. A small gripe I have personally: at Track 10 (I think) sings (I suppose) the artist and a young child. Although this is very sweet, especially for my purposes to relaxation treatment somehow not quite fit. But that does not detract from my rating. Full score for a gifted pianist!
