BEST OF DAVID & DIANE ARKENSTONE (CD)

David and Diane Arkenstone have both carved out unique and prosperous musical careers in their own right; yet, they often love an opportunity to embark upon musical treks outside their normal niches, teaming up for fun, ambitious albums steeped in a variety of influences. From their "Adventure Cargo" series, which contemplated the sounds of Africa, to Ah Nee Mah with its Native American themes and the fantastical "Middle Earth," these two distinguished artists have displayed that there is no limit to their creativity. BEST OF DAVID & DIANE ARKENSTONE highlights music from these and other side projects from the duo, offering a unique cross-section of their recordings. Included are several pieces from Diane's solo efforts, which meld her penchant for reflection and meditation with David's taste for adventure. Also included are songs from projects Earth Trybe, Enaid and the Marquis Ensemble.

Being bound so closely to the musical mastermind of David Arkenstone is probably both a blessing and a curse. The blessing is that she has clearly inherited her husband's musical ear. The curse is that she will ultimately be compared with her partner … she is a musical talent in her own right. Her collaborations with Adorney are even further indications that this has been a true statement for quite some time.? Michael Debbage


Cinematic and wondrous? David's music is spellbinding, with keyboards, guitars, orchestral instruments, and percussion blended to create moods varying from introspection to excitement to passion.” — All Music Guide
