Featuring Stephanie Bennett on concert grand harp, with: winds, brass and strings; tablas, tympani and bells. Like fairy tales full of adventure and romance, music that inspires the imagination to dream. With a host of Los Angeles' finest musicians including Steve Kujala on flute and recorder, Doug Cameron on violin, and Frank Gambale on guitar.
"Very classy, classically oriented harp music with a juicy selection of supportive instruments, and an unexpected touch of Celtic to some cuts. "A Big Cat Hug" delives the superlative artistry of Bennett on the harp, with gorgeous sound transcending anything I have ever heard in terms of harp virtuoso. How many hands does she have?? ...What a delight Bennett has created. I think I listen to this more than any recent album I've acquired. Richly imaginative, sensitively beguiling, it doesn't wear thin because of its lyrical, flowing qualities, an ample mix of moods, paces, wonderful instrumental combinations and divine compositions. Like those intricate pictures where images are hidden, each listening yields fresh delights. Very highly recommended for a multitude of activities and moods, it is vivacious while relaxing, fantastic while suggestive of natural beauty. Enjoy!" THREE STARS (highest rating) - Heartsong Review Magazine
"Bennett's harp, accompanied by flutes, recorders, oboes, brass and strings, weaves hauntingly beautiful renditions that are smooth and very easy listening. Her masterful harp creates sensitive, lovely selections that are excellent for meditation and creative visualization.-Arizona Networking News
"This is a concert harp played with a difference! All the pieces are original composiions by the harpist. The concert harp and, in a few cases, the electro-harp are the main characters, and their supporting cast is composed of instruments such as the flute, cello, recorder, tablas, cor anglais, keyboard and guitar. Music in which it is possible to discover new nuances even after repeated hearing." - HARPA International Harp Journal.
"Stephanie Bennett's Stories Seldom Told is a delightful blend of neo-classical, Celtic, and gentle new-age styles. A talented harpist with a tasteful backup chamber ensemble, she really shines as a truly gifted composer."-Kevin Maxwell, mgr. Music Dept. Bodhi Tree Bookstore, Los Angeles
"One of our country's top harpists" -The Hollywood Reporter
