My Favourite Background Music

Ranked #4,908 in Music, #132,900 overall

Relaxing music

We do not have a HiFi, stereo or some or other fancy sound system in our house but I do have my computer in the dining room with a pretty good sound card and speakers.

The house has got an open plan kitchen, dining and lounge area, which is very nice since I can hear the music whether I am busy in the kitchen, cooking or cleaning, reading a book in the lounge, taking a power nap (wink - wink) in the winter afternoon sun on the couch, or for background music while eating our meals. These are my current favourite CD's.

Gregorian

Masters of Chant

I like listening to the whole second album. It is the only one of six Masters of Chant albums (the others are on my birthday wish list) I have at the moment. I usually listen to it with the bass setting on my control to just under half. I can just picture these monks singing in a very old Monastery. One of the items on Bucket list is to go and listen to a performance in one of the very old, very secluded monasteries in a mountain. My most favorite song on this album is Moment of Peace.

Andrea Bocelli

Cieli Di Toscana (Tuscan Skies)

I probably don't have to say I cannot understand a word of what the man is singing about since I don't speak Italian, but I love listening to the music. It is very calming. All the songs for this album were written especially for him and is based and inspired by his memories.

Andrea Bocelli is an Italian tenor who is completely blind. He is a multi - instrumentalist and has recorded pop and classical music albums as well as eight complete operas. I would love to own more of his albums.
