Breathe
Nicholas Gunn

Štai, ką rašo mielas kolega Seržas Kazlovskis, iš kaimyninės Baltarusijos, įkvėptas šio diskelio muzikos:

Amongst the follies of the morbid world

We will enjoy ourselves,

And love,

And keep on living

And any other thing is a lie…

      When you got tired with the cruelty of the outward things. When you feel despair caused by the ruinous gambles of others. When you want to rest alone and feel deeply that you came to this world to live in love and enjoy your life, to create and to be free and nobody is capable to take away an inward bliss of yours, you just put this music on. It is imbued with an elation, and it’ s inwardly liberated. It‘ s full of vital energy and sexuality. Splashes of heartfelt emotions. A creative impulse and a breath-taking sincerity. All this is present in a new album “ Breathe” by Nicholas Gunn.

      I was waiting impatiently for an appearance of the new album of the musician. And it must be said that I have not been disappointed in it. And what is more: a little over forty minutes have flight by for me in a matter of some seconds. Divine harmonies of flutes, a hand percussion, the keys by Nicholas Gunn and an impeccable sound-design as always. And in every detail you feel a thorough mastery of a real virtuoso who keeps mastering his peculiar sounding.

      “ Breathe” is a doubtless step forward, a new stage in Nicholas Gunn’ s creative work. His music is like a luxuriant vegetation of a vast garden which is breaking down all barriers and extending in all directions because it is the life itself…

      Nicholas Gunn’ s work on composing cannot be adjusted to certain limits, but I should still call the album “ Breathe” a brilliant example of the modern new age music. It is modern indeed as long as Nicholas Gunn speaks the same language you do. He is here, completely in the present moment and you become aware that this music is being born right now, it is being transformed along with your mood and helps to get rid of the burden of day-to-day duties and fell yourself alive. Living in this world. And it inspires you with optimism. The musician opens his inner world to you and he has enough to share it with you!

      The “ Breathe” album is a life-enhancing elixir.

When he and she, two solitudes divine

Occasionally meet

There’ s no end or limit to the mystery of love

And only life exists…
