Album Description:

The Nymphaeum part I thru part V is a symphonic instrumental of dark acoustic guitar, piano and cello accompanied by the whispers, oohs and ahhs of two beautiful sirens- Reenie Varga and Erin Shawn Hawkins.

The vocal track 1, "Radical Seed" is a moody alternative song with spooky acoustic guitar and spacey background strings. Along with the spellbinding tale "Tears of Joy", both written by Reenie, they express the inner emotions and turmoil of love relationships, comparing them to the changing of seasons and the hope for rebirth. They are placed as bookends on the album and compliment and reinforce the gentle beauty of the instrumental tracks.

In the middle of the album is ’what a beautiful sunset!’ an absolute gem of a song with a great piano solo played over a smooth jazz groove. This song is a real turn-around, written by producer Gary Strausbaugh and produced by the band! Totally infectious!

Haunting and unforgettable, the Nymphaeum will uplift your spirit, soothe your soul and transcend you to the secret haven of the nymphs.

A radio mix of "Radical Seed" and "What a beautiful Sunset!" Follow a 10-minute intermission. This way, the 8 song album can be used for relaxation, and the two radio mixes are bonus tracks.


Artist comments:

I can’t think of any other album that is similar to this one- it is truly unique, but you will love ’the Nymphaeum’ if you like intricate songs with thought provoking arrangements, classical instruments and heavenly voices.

Each song has an eerie and haunting mood. The music is wonderful for relaxing, releasing stress or to just ’veg out’.

So far, the response has been overwhelmingly positive. We have put two years of hard work, a big part of our savings, and an even bigger part of our soul to bring you ’the Nymphaeum’.

Sit back and listen and I know you will be transported to a new and beautiful place, full of magic and delight.
