"Ocean
Eclipse" Music Sample
Crutcher complements his on-site
recordings with original compositions for this rare event: birds
fall from the sky, flowers close and insects become silent until
the moment of total eclipse, when they begin to vocalize as if
it were night. Lokota flute, silver flute, keyboards, soprano
saxophone, acoustic guitar, hand drums, assorted percussion. 43
minutes.
"Another winner for Rusty Crutcher
fans, and an excellent choice for anyone seeking a soothing musical
break in their day or wishing to experience a supremely sensitive
interpretation of the spectacular natural phenomenon of total
solar eclipse."
-- Jaack Clarke, Awareness Magazine
"A collector's item and audiophile's
dream, Ocean Eclipse is an historical first-an atmospheric/emotional
sound portrait of a great stellar event."
-- NATURE MUSIC
"Radiant, shimmering...It polishes
the air waves."
-- C.Wright, Music & Audio Reviews
". . . absolutely exquisite
music."

"A collector's
item and an audiophile's dream, OCEAN ECLIPSE is an historical
first - an atmospheric/emotional sound portrait of a great stellar
event."
- THE LIND INSTITUTE
"It
is not just the ambient nature sounds that are the foundation
for this moving creation. Crutcher must have absorbed the eclipse
like a sponge. He paints the music - with synthesizer and live
flutes, saxes, and drums - over the ocean, and it reflects out
the speakers. A radiant, shimmering - and appropriately darkening
- atmosphere. It polishes the air waves.
- NAPRA REVIEW
"Bird
calls, the rush of ocean waves, and other natural phenomena were
blended in-studio with Lakota and silver flute, saxophone, guitar,
percussion, and other instrumentation to create a musical pilgrimage
of homage to our home star, the Sun, briefly shadowed in total
darkness…OCEAN ECLIPSE's exquisitely delicate musical imagery
is especially suitable for meditative listening on fine audio
equipment."
- NEW TEXAS MONTHLY
"Crutcher's
'Machu Picchu Impressions' is a best selling perennial. [OCEAN
ECLIPSE] should do even better as the artist is obviously at the
peak of his considerable creative power. Crutcher's work is not
to be missed."
