Walk In Beauty
Garland's music takes many of its cues from present-day minimalism: single notes  characterized in simple patterns or motifs with the usual bass underscoring to give each piece  depth. And that's the secret to Garland's success. InWalk in Beauty, a solo piano piece, we  get a gentle series of quiet progressions that impose nothing upon the listener but the desire to  follow the argument through to its end. InSones de Florthe same noble underscoring on  the piano allows the strings to float effortlessly by. This is music that never looses its charm.-- Paul Cook
