A graduate of the Royal Academy of Music, Ms. Thornton is also a founding member of the group "Arcana Mundi", a concept dreamt up by producer Craig Leon. Her exceptional talent was brought to the fore when she opened the show on Roxy Music vocalist Bryan Ferry's solo tour promoting his "As Time Goes By" album of standards. Since then, she has not only toured with beau Ferry on his solo ventures but also as percussionist for the Roxy Music reunion tours. This disc is her first set of solo harp classical recordings, produced (of course) by longtime mentor Craig Leon (who incidentally produced the first Ramones album, both Blondie label debut albums, Phillip Boa, Rodney Crowell, the National Lampoon's Vacation soundtrack, in addition to albums recorded with his wife Cassell Webb).

Harpistry
$14.19 Tenderfoot is a beautiful album from Without Gravity, full of slow, loping rural grooves and spectrally pretty vocals from lead singer Kalli (just Kalli). On this debut LP the Icelandic group explores the same expansively ethereal, uncluttered terrain that Irishman Damien Rice explored on his debut, O, but with a bit more of an alt-country bent at times. In "Beautiful Son" -- which moves along at a laid-back acoustic groove, Kalli's gorgeous, jazzy vocals floating atop it all -- the prettiness is in the hushed spaces. "Country," with its bright peals of acoustic slide and (relatively) upbeat shuffle, could be an outtake from Ryan Adams' Heartbreaker. In fact, the aforementioned albums, Heartbreaker and O, are good reference points for understanding the hushed beauty of the aptly monikered Without Gravity; it's all about acoustic grooves, barely grazed percussion, and pretty, pretty vocals on this enchantingly atmospheric album. This LP, recorded primarily live in the studio -- with few alterations -- is packed with tunes for the beautifully downtrodden. ~ Erik Hage

Harpistry
$13.45 The soundtrack album to Rick Ray's stirring documentary about the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader befits the subject matter. Revered new age pianist Peter Kater creates 10 beds of synthesizer lushness, over which hovers cello (from the equally respected David Darling), flute (R. Carlos Nakai), and genuine Tibetan lama Tulku Orgyen's chanting. The music haunts, even without the film's inspiring visuals
Recording information: Point of Light Studios.
Personnel: Peter Kater (piano, synthesizer, programming); Peter Kater; Nawang Khechog (chant); Mark Miller (soprano saxophone); David Darling (cello); Richard Hardy (flute, soprano saxophone); R. Carlos Nakai (Native American flute).
