Product Description
From Amazon.com
After releasing more than 15 recordings for his original record label (Narada), pianist David Lanz makes his debut on Decca Records with East of the Moon, a well-mannered blend of instrumental pop and orchestral pomp that occupies stylistic ground between John Tesh and Mannheim Steamroller. Guided by renowned producer Hugh Padgham (Sting, Phil Collins, et al.), Lanz recorded the album's 14 tracks live, laying down eight ensemble pieces (two uptempo, six subdued) and a high-minded, six-part work ("World at Peace") that involves a 35-piece orchestra. No new classics seem to be lurking here, though the propulsive "Dancing with Dionyscis" has its moments. By touching on themes of mythology and transcultural transformation, East of the Moon is intended less for bedroom candlelight and more for the internal flame Lanz enjoys rekindling within his spiritually inclined faithful listeners. Corny to some; a tonic to others. --Terry Wood

Interesting album,
By ed1300 "ed1300" (Boston, Ma) - See all my reviews
This review is from: East of the Moon (Audio CD)
This is an interesting work of David's I enjoyed the first half, he seems to capture some of the magic that he has in his other albums but I am not sure about the second half. It lost me. So I have to give it a 4 star review.

Absolutely Extraordinary,
By Robbie Steiner (New Orleans, LA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: East of the Moon (Audio CD)
David Lanz's East of the Moon is a phenomenal album with an incredible orchestra that gracefully flows with the melody of the piano. Every song on this album is worth your time. A great CD and a masterpiece from David - recommended to everybody! ~ Robbie Sterner

Good Music, but the artist talks too much,
By A Customer
This review is from: East of the Moon (Audio CD)
The music on this CD IS very relaxing and has fun sound to it. But the artist ruins it by expressing his views on mythology and goes on and on about "world peace". That's fine for him, but I don't want to listen to his speeches, I just want the music! Other than that, this CD has beautiful music on it, my particular favorite is 'East of the Moon'. As good as the music is, I don't think I will be buying much music by this artist anymore.
