Surveying the Andreas Vollenweider's career from his 1981 worldwide debut, Behind the Gardens, Behind the Wall, Under the Tree to 2000's Cosmopoly. The Essential concentrates on the Swiss harpist's upbeat, jazzier, and occasionally sappier material, leaving the more textural, emotionally ambiguous pieces aside. Nevertheless, there's a breadth of vision represented on this single CD that shows a musician who's always searching, in the process finding affinity with Ladysmith Black Mambazo on "Passage to Promise" and Milton Nascimento on "Cor Do Amor." Vollenweider's albums have always been meticulously recorded, with each instrument given its own acoustic space, creating an encompassing sense of architecture. But the re-mixes here improve the sound dramatically, especially on the earlier works. For the Vollenweider fan, there's nothing new here, but for the uninitiated, this is a good place to start. --John Diliberto
