Absolutely Transfixing
This CD has been a staple in our family for the past 4 years. I simply never tire of it. It is not "kids' music" but family music! The instrumentation is beautiful, the artists and songs are earthy, rich and varied, and it does not have that slick, overproduced feel but just a bit raw, and totally real. You can tell that this was a project with heart and soul. I have just purchased a copy for a friend who has successfully adopted a child from Guatemala (no compilations specific to Guatemala out there!)

beatiful lullabyes for children and adults
This CD is so beautiful--I would be happy to own it even if I didn't have children. We have 5 month old twins so it's too early for us to know if they like the cd, but I'll be surprised if they don't. I even gave it to another friend as a gift.

Slightly offensive
Since I do not know spanish, I was glad the words were included. I found a few of the songs racially offensive.

Pleasing & soothing to adult & baby ears
I generally find most children's music intolerably grating because of the synthesized tinny instruments and condescending vibe. This CD has the opposite traits. Rich sounding music made with love and respect. As a co-sleeping mom, I end up listening to my daughter's CDs at bedtime. This is my favorite lullaby CD. It's very soothing and lulling. For daytime music, check out CDs by Ralph's World, Sara Hickman and Jose-Luis Orozco.

Really Lovely!
I received this cd when I was pregnant with my daughter at my baby shower eight years ago. My daughter has gone to sleep every night of her life listening to this cd- she calls it "The Lady Music." We finally wore it out, and I have just ordered a replacement. It has often put me to sleep as well. My daughter is half Salvadoran and I am a high school Spanish teacher, and I just love the Spanish and indigenous languages in this collection. If I could give it ten stars, lo haría (I would)!
