About The Record:
Behind the Gardens, Behind the Wall, Under the Tree, New Age album by Andreas Vollenweider, peaked at #17 on Billboard's Top Jazz Albums. Vollenweider, a Swiss musician, performs on a mechanically altered concert harp. His instrument enables him to counteract the meditative properties of the harp with a strong rhythmic pulse. The results are very low-frequency bass tones in the harp, coupled with an almost orchestral sense of harmony. This very popular album is upbeat, centering and a real delight. (allmusic.com)
