  A ‘new age music’ album which isn’t in fact New Age.  Simon Cooper is a committed Christian and this beautiful album integrates Gregorian chants, ethereal soprano singers and huge synth soundscapes to produce an evocative musical experience which will reward careful listening yet can also be used as a gentle aid to meditation.  Fifty five minutes of soul-soothing music by clearly an exceptionally talented composer.  If you don’t fancy looking for this great CD in you local New Age shop, get your cheque off to Simon.
