Lullaby: A Beautiful and Soothing Collection of Night Time Songs for Children and Grown Ups

CD-Charts > Music > Lullabies
by: Sophie Barker

Release Date February 11, 2008
A cd of lullabies that your child is going to enjoy & relax to each night but isn't going to make you jump out the window is a tough challenge. Sophie Barker has done a really good job with this collection. I had to throw away the cd I used with my son but I'm now 18 months into listening to this every day & still smiling.
I would recommend it

Children's Favourite: Lullabies

CD-Charts > Music > Lullabies
by: Various Artists

Release Date July 31, 2006
A nice collection of songs and her voice doesn't grate as some female singers' voices do. I prefer the voice on this collection to albums featuring the voice of Susie Tallman whose voice I find altogether too high to be condsidered really relaxing. I note this says various artists and yet the album features one female voice throughout. Maybe it really is different singers but it doesn't sound like it when listening. I don't know why albums like this don't make it known the singer's name, it seem a little unfair that they have to remain anonymous, especially when the renditions are as nice as this.

Children's Bedtime Lullabies

CD-Charts > Music > Lullabies
by: Kootie Bear Collection

Release Date March 03, 2008
This CD is hideous! It is like listening to the worst of Classic FM. Original music turned into 'soft focus slush'. They haven't even kept the original rhythm of the music. Had I had any inkling that it would be like this I wouldn't have bought it.

Mnemosyne

CD-Charts > Music > Lullabies
from: ECM New Series

Release Date April 12, 1999
I bought this CD and "Officium" some time ago and still marvel at the way the music transports me to another level! My particular favourite is the Tallis track, "O Lord in Thee is all my trust" - it is incredibly haunting and evocative, with the plaintive saxophone melody soaring away, tearing at your soul, and yet so uplifting. Garbarek and the Hilliard Ensemble really work well together, one complementing the other. I think you either love their musical expressions in these CDs or hate them - there is no in between!

Soothing Sounds for Baby-Vol 1 (1 - 6 months)

CD-Charts > Music > Lullabies
by: Raymond Scott

Release Date
There's good news and there's good news. After 10 minutes of track 1, Lullaby, my one-month-old was fast asleep. As it played on, she continued to rest peacefully at a time when she would normally have been one alert little munchkin.

And now for the other good news: This is a fantastic recording, and an important one for music lovers and musicologists. Having been recording in 1962/3, this sounds extraordinarily sophisticated (in a mellow, analogue "soothing" way). It sounds as if it could have been made today, and put out on Warp Records. The melodic blips and rhythyms are echoed in Radiohead's recent releases and, as the liner notes point out, this work pre-dates Brian Eno's Discreet Music by a decade.

The John Rutter Christmas Album

CD-Charts > Music > Lullabies
from: Collegium

Release Date November 04, 2002
I thought this CD had got lost in our recent house move and was delighted when it turned up in one the last boxes to be opened. I immediately rushed to listen again even though it is early March and am once again entranced by the warmth and beauty of the music and the singing. You really can play this CD anytime in the year and that is what I am doing now! If you buy it you will not be disappointed!

Mozart for Mothers-To-Be: Tender Lullabies for Mother and Child

CD-Charts > Music > Lullabies
by: Various Artists

Release Date April 09, 1996
I've been playing this cd every day since I was six months pregnant and my son is now six months old, and both of us are still enjoying it, so that's a testament to how good it is. As a musician myself, I'm fussy about what I listen to, but unlike the usual mozart cds, they've gone to an effort to find an interesting choice of (mostly) less well known pieces, which are well-arranged so that there aren't any jarring changes of key from one piece to the next, and most of the performances are really fine, so that the whole effect is, indeed, very, very soothing and soporific. I play this at night and find it very helpful for getting my son off to sleep, but you could also use it as general relaxation music to de-stress to in pregnancy.
