Sound Clip from "Picture Dreams"
"There is a reason that music is called the universal language. You don't need to be a native of a certain area of the world or knowledgeable about their culture to know good music when you hear it. Spoken language and customs all are put aside for a few short minutes while the melodies float through the air. This is kind of the feeling I get when I listen to Picture Dreams."
"as tranquil as it is haunting"
