Hello! When I was young, I liked to listen the music of William Jackson. Your track made me remember these moments. Thanks. But now, as guitarist and piper, this kind of new age is too much synthetic to me. I need to listen true instruments even they are very nice emulated like yours. But, you play fine, sure!

I LIKE what I'm hearing..this is a Good Music for Meditations somewhere ..high in The Mountains.. did You take and inspiration from Peruvian Folk Music.. hearing it make You feel like go to Heaven and Stars.. it is Sad and Happy same time.. I see You put Your Heart in to..I like that.. to bad that the Music Market is very limited but there are People who will Like to hear it..like a Concert in New Age Store.. or some College Radio Stations .. I hope That You be able to found a Music Publisher who will take it to Theirs catalog.. I wish You good luck with pitching.. GOOD JOB.. I really like it..I will listen more of Your Music..

Time for another review and todays lucky recipient is Mr. Frank O Connor and his ambient piece "The Rainbow Bridge". Every once and a while I like to go outside my normal listening paradigm and listen to something completely different. Most people probably do not know this but I have a guilty pleasure for new age instrumental music, I think it started with my love for one of the originators of the genre, Kitaro. The irony of course is not lost on my that this track has many similarities to Mr. Kitaro's. Let's get into this review. This is a classic new age kind of piece with a droning harmonic chord progression. Long periods of time are spent on just one chord as the melody, played by the iconic shakuhachi and sometimes a Celtic tin whistle if I'm not mistaken. Every so often the droning is altered by a progression proper where both instruments play in unison creating a lush and emotive crescendo of sorts, beautifully engaging the listener. The melody proper is probably one of the standout aspects of the song, it's familiar but not, it weaves and undulates like a gentle wind. I love the subjective nature of the track, your mind weaves a panoramic tapestry that only enhances the appeal of the song, I saw myself on the Cliffs of Dover over looking the sea, I wonder what you will see when you listen to this gorgeous piece of music. This would not be a proper review of course without some critiquing and therefore here are some very light suggestions in my humble opinion that would help serve the track even more. The recording itself is pretty good, the production is top notch. Every instrument is represented proper within the context of the mix so there in no issue there. The issue in my opinion is the lack of supplementary instruments to help enrich the underlying harmonic structure. The track relies heavily of this synth type pad but I'm hearing orchestral parts there, subtle shifts in the harmony to create more tension and release. The track is about 9 minutes long therefore there has to be more elements to keep the listener engaged. The song in of itself is beautiful by nature but it lacks enough variation to keep the listeners attention clearly focused for the entire duration. I think the biggest improvement that could be made is with the long droning parts. This was a perfect opportunity to elevate the harmony and create a further juxtaposition between said harmony and the melody, which is fine as is. Overall, I really like this track and thought it was pretty killer through and through but with a little more messaging this could be an incredible piece of music. Well done Mr. O Connor, as Dubya would have said, Mission Accomplished! Christopher Carrion XXX

Okay Frank, let me be frank... lol I like the over all melodies of this song, I like the sounds chosen for the instrumentation. The song has a peaceful vibe. However, No offense intended... but this song is way, way too long for what is actually going on during the song. It gets too repetitive I could not focus on the whole 9 mins. There is no lead instrumentation to keep me locked in to the song. also the dynamics throughout the song don't really change much. so the musical voyage just goes around in circles and never really leads me anywhere. my two cents, Cheers!

This was so relaxing I drifted off. I love flute and the gentle layers of music as it washed over me, Excellent music for meditation or hypnosis especially as it has some familiar faded melodies lurking within that you are pleasant.

If you have ha very stressfull day with a lot of negative thougts, I recomend you to listen to this beatifull peace of music. It´s also good for listening and chillin out. This music reminds me about some of the instrumental tracks form Mike Oldfield and Yanni. Very beatyfull music with electronic and acustic instruments blended together in a beautifull way.

Good use of instruments and effects, liked the melody in the occasions it pops, although generally it feels very monotonous. Definitely brought me back to my New Age highschool days where I'd listen to Oliver Shanti for hours. The poor mix takes away from the experience for me, the background effects sometimes overpower the main melody instead of compliment it. Also the lack of actual structure to the track was disappointing, as if the track just arbitrarily ends instead of being actually over.

nature, flute pan, birds and beautiful music to frame a beautiful painting. your music is truly meditative and open imagination ... for a moment I felt among the native Indians.. excellent work

Of big spaces, a distant horizon, soft hills, some old stone houses, on the West, the big ocean. A very beautiful music which brings us full of images in head. Very Irish, this composition. I like it very much!

Hello Frank first I want to say this song is so pretty its one of those types of songs you can listen to over and over really smooth easy on the ears keep up the great work you are very talented I think you have a really great tune for a film score or the big screen I will be looking forward to hearing other great tunes from you I hope what

The great eclectic ethnic character. Sacred flutes tones over mystic pads enforces the ethnic character of this track. The mix balance is not perfect but this doesn't disturb the listeners. I like the idea of this track.

Frank, nice play! very nice harmonies. would perfectly fit to an ambient/new age radio station. The background recordings creating a nice atmosphere. Its nicely setup, the flow of the tunes are very calming. I assume this is played live recording, or otherwise you are computer freak, as this sounds very natural and pro. good work! I actually could listen this in full - probably the first time on this site :) gave a nice high score as deserved.

A very relaxing track with brilliantly executed flute, South American influences and beautiful memorable melodies blended with the sounds of nature. -Written by Catherine Duc (New Age nominee, 2016 GRAMMYS)

This is an instrumental calling to mind the American Indian wooden pipes in it's aria of simplicity. It is open to interpretation. My discernment reveals a Calling In of The Faithful to the One Who Is Faithful and True. It is a song of Quickening the Spirits who are those set apart for a Glorious Appearing of Manifestations of Miraculous Happenings, Signs and Wonders in the true light of The Lord of The Rainbow Jesus Christ. So shall these signs be manifested on earth as they are dispensed from His Heavenly Realms. Echos of the human vocals are a Clarion Call of The Quickening of Spirits of Sons & Daughters giving voice to Arias of Yearning Sounds of Love to The King of Kings for The New Earth to be found in His True New Beginning. And so, when we do appear transformed by His True Light from The Father, all of the earth will rejoice and be glad so that then "Even the trees of the fields will clap their hands as the Saints go walking by." Holy Bible Scripture.

This is a very nice and creative song well composed and well put together I love the music very relaxing and peaceful song at anytime I would love to hear more of your great sounding music keep on going to the next level and never stop creating this is a very creative song and thank you so much for sharing your uniqueness with me and the entire world enjoy the rest of your day and may God continue to bless you in all that you go to create be blessed.

This song transported me to diferents places. The track have a nice soundscape, some moments i can fell the sesnsation of being in a the coast of netherlands. When the choir came up , i heard somethimg like a lost sirens call. I really love this song. Congratulations! Ale Maglio. Pd: sorry for mi english.

Frank did a very nice job on this song and all the tracks used. It took me to northern Maine in the deep summer! I look forward to hearing more material from Frank. It also reminded me a bit of Kitaro at the end.
