C 9502 MASSAGE BAROQUE MUSIC: MUSIC FOR LOVERS HEARTBEAT (only available as digital download or streaming)

To share a massage at home with your partner, giving and receiving quality massage, is an act of love. A massage is the best investment you can make in a healthy relationship. Your partner will melt under your touch—and so will you when it is your turn to receive! Touch is healthy! Pleasurable touch lowers your blood pressure, boosts your immune system and releases pleasure hormones. In our busy lives, it is all too easy to rush past intimacy and forget to actively cultivate closeness with our lover. Sharing a massage at home is a simple way to deliberately create intimate moments to bring you closer and keep your spark alive.

The tracks on this Massage Baroque Music CD present a remarkable collection of meltingly sensuous baroque music compiled by José Carlos Cabello, artistic director of the early music label Cantus. Recording took place in January 2000 at the Romanesque church of Amsoldingen, Switzerland. No obstrusive recordings systems or mixes were used, and the purity of the recorded sound that you will notice was achieved by the use of a single source sound system based on a stereo microphone. The works selected have been restored to their original colour and are performed by world class artists using period instruments. The music relates profoundly to the human heartbeat and so provides an atmosphere of intense intimacy enhancing the pleasures of massage to the highest level of sublety. For total stimulation of all senses towards an ultimate satisfaction, luxuriate in incense, body rub , massage oil and music simultaneously.

For our irresistible Massage Baroque Music CD we have selected a number of gloriously beautiful baroque adagios by great composers like Johann Sebastian Bach, George Frideric Handel, Antonio Vivaldi, and other lesser known maestros like Heinichen, Leonardo Leo, Fasch or Almeida. Besides, we have included a marvelous oboe adagio by Albinoni, that composer who has just too often credited with an adagio that he never actually wrote...Oh, almost forgot! We end the CD with a non-baroque piece, the beautiful prélude op. 18 composed by Cesar Franck, performed here with period harmonium and fortepiano. Why? Because it is such a sensuous, magical masterwork that we felt that you would love to hear it once your massage is almost finished and need to relax and empty your mind of any other thoughts... All in all, this is a fascinating collection of music of the highest quality and beauty, ordered in a way that will allow you slightly change the kind of touch and pressure and the intensity of the massage, gently inspired by the different textures of the instruments employed in the works recorded: concertos for baroque oboe, or for violin, or for violoncello, and also two gorgeous vocal pieces that add a different quality to the general mood of this unique CD.
