Making reviews for musical collections is usually an ungrateful thing. Often these samplers has a "washed away" nature and not a whole one. But it is important for new age albums. To my big joy I must say that the New World Music sampler did not "justify" these worrying soul expectations.

This is a conceptually whole and very competently selected collection of compositions from various albums released by the New World Music. The "cream" from the albums of most famous musicians, such as Medwyn Godall, Terry Oldfield, John Richardson, Mike Rowland, Asha and many others. It is interesting, that compositions in this collection are divided into four categories: Uplifting, Inspiring, Relaxing and Healing. Four compositions are presented in each of these categories. As a result, we have a hour and a quarter of perfect new age music! I'd like to say that all the music presented in the CD is a new age of the "highest standard of fineness".

I compared this music with a noble metal not occasionally. In general, this album is a real value, maybe one of the largest treasures which exists in this Earth. You can ask me why is it so, and I can answer that here a real value is at present - the aesthetics of a new, better world, the world were the Spirit reigns, where Love and Harmony exists. This world will be for sure in our Earth!

We are coming to this world together with the music of the New World Music Company! And only this road under the bottomless sky, and only fresh wind, and unreasonable joy, which troubles the soul and washes the heart with warm waves. And it is impossible to say anything...
