Grasping for the Wind

Theme Music for your Fantasy Reading

Sometimes when I read, I like to listen to music. I usually use soundtracks and they often play in such a way that they sort of fit with what is going in in the plot I'm reading (weird huh) but a friend recently turned me on to this band called Blackmore's Night.

A sort of updated Carmina Burana with electric guitar, the music is fun and upbeat. Candice Night has a great voice. Along with these more upbeat pieces, they also have some very slow and ethereal music.

Although it is very eighties in some ways, even my wife (who has very disparate musical tastes from mine) loves it! I think fantasy readers who enjoy listening to music while reading ought to look into this neat band.
