Uniquely beautiful and happy music: After 35 years of listening almost only to classical music, I have embarked on an ear- and mind-opening exploration of other music. This disc has been among the most rewarding. Every piece is tuneful, happy, interesting, and unique. It is hard not to keep listening over and over and over. It is a desert island disc.

Greg Ribot is certainly eclectic. For years he has written music for film and television, as well as composing pieces for various classical ensembles.
