On this CD,
Ricky performs eleven original songs that reflect the beauty, majesty, magic
and mystery of southern Colorado. From the opening bars of the meditative Dream
catcher, into the pulsating and hypnotic rhythms of Dance, through the upbeat
La Veta Loca and Uptop, to the quietude of Midwinter Dreams, this collection
reflects the many moods of Colorado. Ricky's music on this project has been
described as "George Winston meets Carlos Nakai meets Yanni." His solo piano is
accompanied by talented musicians performing Native American flute, guitar, and
a variety of indigenous percussion instruments, including deer toes, bladder
shakers, and the famed Nashville String Machine Orchestra. Ricky also plays
Native American flute on several of the tracks. Sacred Age is neither
classical, new age, pop, nor world; however, it could easily fall under any of
those classifications. (2005)
