This is one of the best Cd’s Leitmotiv has dropped to date. Parc Sainte-Marie isn’t so much a record, as a great effort at dragging you into another world. This is the first studio album from Leitmotiv since bad diagnosis in 2002. This is what good New Age should be.
Au Parc Sainte-Marie pretty much defines how I feel spiritually. Les Yeux Bleus gets you up and jumping. So much energy, so exciting a sound.Un Bal A Sarajevo (Ou Aitteurs) as a highlight of Parc Sainte-Marie contains a ton of gorgeous melodies. Un Mysterieuse Innocence is one of the more up-tempo songs on Parc Sainte-Marie. Le Vent is Leitmotiv’s best work in years. Strong percussion and poignant lyrics of this track really gets under your skin. This song could easily nestle itself onto the world top playlists. Nocturne is a cool, simple song by Leitmotiv at the top of his game. L’orgue Des Rues to me is the best you can get from Leitmotiv. Leitmotiv offers the kind of music here that makes you reflect on yourself. Chant De Solitude is astounding. One of the more genuine-sounding songs is Jeux D’enfants. Fin De Siecle sets the tone for the entire album. Vocal harmonies in this track are great and song structure is just right. Trois Improvisations Sur Le Pouce is possibly the best song Leitmotiv has come up.
