California multi-instrumentalist (but mainly pianist) Cheryl Gunn, wife of world-music flutist Nicholas Gunn, debuted with Vanity of Venus, an album filled with references to nature and highlighted by her piano. Vanity Of Venus perfects that art in which piano, electronic and flute themes intersect without colliding but also without merely repeating each other. It is mostly an art of melodic fragments that float away, return, change, grow and blossom. A cosmic breeze fuels Spellbound, while Tides Turned soars propelled by drum-machines and Vanity Of Venus sleeps in the arms of a gentle piano melody. But the melodic peaks are probably to be found in the gentle melancholy of Dark Of The Moon and in the majestic elegance of Elysian Fields. ~Piero Scaruffi
