about
The harp has a significant place in mythology – and listening to “Maia” it is easy to understand why it is an instrument for the gods. In Greek mythology, Maia was the eldest of the Pleiades and the mother Hermes, who is credited with inventing both the lyre and the flute. “Maia” is one of the finest pieces on the album, and don’t be surprised if you find yourself looking for the replay button. The conclusion is both intense and incredible, all thanks to Veraart’s vocal. She single-handedly fills space with stories and life. - BT Fasmer, New Age Music Guide - newagemusic.guide/reviews/christel-veraart-pleiades-review/
