Sleep is Behind the Door
author: Courtney Turay
                            
This is an amazing CD and I am thrilled to own it. My three children have listened to it several times and it is not just for night-night at our house--we like to play it during the day or in the car, etc. Just an amazing collection by a superb artist! Brava!

Without hesitation, we can confidently award this disc Lullaby Album of the Year. "Sleep is Behind the Door" features Grammy-winning classical musicians and the stunning, heart-melting and highly-acclaimed voice of classically-trained soprano, Courtenay Budd. Ranging from simple voice and piano duets to tenderly orchestrated chamber settings, drawing from cellos, violins, flute, clarinet, guitar and a choral ensemble, this hour of exquisite and precious international lullabies truly eases the heart and lulls the mind, working just as effectively on adults as it does with little ones. Centering around the classical art song form and varying from crystalline impressionistic styles to playful and simple folk-like songs, these 25 tracks sing, waltz and lilt their way into your fanciful thoughts and daydreams. With all profits going to aid victims of natural disasters, this disc brings ease and comfort in more ways than one.
