Product Description: If these truly gorgeous lullabies and songs from all over the world don't soothe the savage beast within your child, nothing will. This hypnotic collection of soft and slow melodies--some ancient, some new--is perfect for lulling a child to sleep or for any evening when you want to escape into a warm bath with candles. Carlos Santana accompanies African singer Angelique Kidjo on the sweet opener, "Naima." Claudia Martinez sings "Arriba Del Cielo (Above the Sky)," a lilting traditional lullaby with roots in the Mexican state of Guerrero. The Letterstick Band, from the small An-Barra clan of Australian Aborigines, performs the moving "Yi-Rrana (Sunset)." One favorite is "Lá Vai Alguém (There Goes Someone)," a hot-summer-night-sounding lullaby sung in velvety tones by Virginia Rosa. Another lovely addition is Kanji Yano of the Sanshin Café Orchestra playing a generations-old lullaby on a traditional stringed instrument from Okinawa called the sanshin. The liner notes, written in English, Spanish, French, and Dutch, provide kid-friendly facts about the countries of origin. A portion of the proceeds are donated to the Putumayo Cross-Cultural Initiative, a non-profit organization that uses the power of world music and the arts to inspire children to connect with diverse cultures. Vive Dreamland! --Karin Snelson


Customer Reviews


5 stars The most incredible lullaby CD EVER!
This is a compilation of the most stunning lullabies I've ever heard. My daughter is 10 months old, and I can't believe that we just discovered this album now! The other lullaby CDs we own pale in comparison to this CD. I can't imagine anyone not loving the songs on this album as much as we do. But it... you won't regret it.


5 stars Perfect CD - a favorite!
We love this CD!

My daughter goes to sleep to it every night, and we also play it during the day just for nice relaxing background music.
I love that it incorporates so many different types of music...african, brazilian, etc. It is a WONDERFUL CD that I would highly reccommend!


5 stars Best Lullaby CD
Wonderful, soothing, beautiful, diverse collection of lullabies from countries around the world. I put this in the CD player at naptime for my pre-K class and hit repeat play. I would suggest to anyone with children.


5 stars Fantastic
Bought this one a whim; first one I purchased in this series. I absolutely LOVE it. We instantly made it part of our bedtime ritual. I love every song! (which is highly unlike me; I average 3-5 songs a cd at best normally). I think it is also way better than the other dreamland's in the series. Actually, it really is my favorite Putumayo thus far!


5 stars Great Bed Time Choice
We have worn through this CD and have bought a 2nd.

My boy has listened to this since he was a newborn and we never tire of the music; great choice.

Believe it or not the Martha Stewart Lullaby CD compilation is a good one.

And, you can never go wrong with Suzie Tallman.
