AMG Review of Terra Magica

Jim Brenholts
All Music Guide

Georg Deuter is "a musical shaman (and) a priest of silence and sound. Terra Magica: Planet of Light is his pan-cultural prayer." That is what the liner notes of this CD claim -- and they are accurate. This is a homage to hope and spiritual strength. Deuter takes his shamanic calling seriously and invokes his spirituality freely. He does not, however, take himself too seriously, so he is able to show his playful side. These atmospheres are deep, joyous, and carefree. The message is clear and direct. There are no missing pieces. This holistic masterpiece will appeal to fans of Kitaro, Vangelis, Constance Demby, and Suzanne Ciani.
