Jack Wood's first concept album Per Ankh offers accesible and rather simple music that will lead the listener back to the old days of Egypt. This album portaits the life and vision of the female and male pharoahs Hatchepsut and Akhenaten, but now transferred into sound in which alot of flute sounds can be heard in the first tracks, which are dedicated to Hatchepsut. In track 5, some nice choral textures are implemented as well, while you delve further into the sonic scenery of Karnak. It sometimes slightly reminded me of the former music of John Mark, but surely has enough own signature to paint its own cinematic picture for the listener. This is an album really worth the try, so step in and enjoy the journey which lies just around the corner of one's own imagination.

I recently bought both this CD and Pharoahs 2 (by Gale Revilla); both CDs are highly evocative and make wonderful additions to my collection of Ancient Egyptian-inspired music. Recommended.

Excellent music to work by. It will enhance your emotions.
author: Rich and Kelly
This CD offers an imaginative and dreamy style of New Age or Ambient music featuring old Egypt. It makes us think Mr. Wood was there with the ancient Egyptians and is telling his experience through music. The CD has many themes like a movie soundtrack. It is worth the try, you won't be sorry. We look forward to future CD's by Jack Wood.

Beautiful, peaceful music that strikes your memory and the heart.

House of Life is peaceful and relaxing with themes you'll remember for hours. They reach into my heart bringing fourth childhood memories, both good and bad. It's great for imagining live in ancient Egypt. I don't know how Jack Wood did it, but his music touches me on a personal level. I highly recommend it. Great for surround sound too!
