On a Starry Night by Various Artists Windham Hill Records

Product Description: The party line on most Windham Hill products seems to be that it's either the greatest stuff since wave machines, or that it all sounds alike. On a Starry Night, with its collection of world songs and reputable artists such as Flora Purim, Airto Moreira, the Turtle Island String Quartet, and others, does lean toward a seamlessly understated, homogeneous quality that is broken only occasionally by Bobby McFerrin's piece and a couple of others. That said, there can hardly be a more mellow or sonorous album of kid's music anywhere. Starry Night could calm a nursery with no nurses; why, it could even soothe the pained yelps at the dog pound--and turn a freeway full of bumper-to-bumper sour pusses into pussycats. Effective? You've heard of mind control, haven't you? --Martin Keller

Customer Reviews

3 stars a lot of wind instruments...
I bought this CD because of all the rave reviews I read about it. The other people must have been a bit more earthy-crunchy than I am. I found all the wind instruments a bit boring. I think I like to hear a little more piano or something... I love the baby Mozart CD but I thought my baby needed a change every once in a while. Thats why I bought this one. It's ok....

5 stars I LOVE this CD....
I just love this CD. It puts my 4 month old, and me, to sleep every night. It soo soothing and relaxing, and really just beautiful music. I encourage you to take a few minutes and listen to the samples....

5 stars Very soothing
This is the only sleepytime album that our little one listens to and it works to put him to sleep every time.

5 stars Beautiful
My daughter recieved this CD as a gift for her 2nd birthday. For the last 2+ years she has listened to it almost every single night when going to sleep. It is such a beautiful and peaceful compilation. It was a great compromise to get rid of the night light!

5 stars Beautiful Music!
This is one of the most beautiful CDs I ever purchased for my baby.
The music is so beautiful you forget you are listening to a lullaby CD.
My baby (as well as the rest of the family) loves to listen to this CD - it is a beautiful way to wind down after a busy day.
