Show #24: Music to Dream By, Pt. 1

One of my recent Fall Music Salon sessions featured audio dreamscapes, so I’ve decided to devote this week’s show to some of those artists. We’ll feature Harold Budd‘s arresting and ecstatic 1975 album The Pavilion of Dreams, Toru Takemitsu‘s hypnotic I Hear the Water Dreaming, Nino Rota‘s amazing music for Il Casanova with rubbed wine glasses ringing, Erik Satie‘s timeless Gymnopedies, Dead Can Dance’s Brendan Perry with his “Morrison-like” vocals, as well as, other artists.

I hope it helps you reach a pleasant dream state while listening.
