    Everything here is gorgeously sung and this woozy, gently uplifting collection of songs is pretty close to perfect.

    His debut illustrates a more prosaic act of creation, in which fastidious study is transformed into compelling new music. [Aug 2011, p.92]

    The zeal in presenting a glut of music like this is commendably refreshing actually, but in the end Gentle Spirit may be too big for its own good.
