"Born Out Of Silence" was the first album released on the Cedar n Sage Music label. This colorful and dynamic ensemble, Autumn's Child features the haunting beauty of the native American flute with the soothing sounds of cello, harp, guitar, piano, ethnic percussion and a myriad of other sounds and color. For additional information on the music of Mark Holland/ Autumn's Child please visit: www.autumnschild.com Deliciously melancholic cello strings introduce us to Mark Holland's compelling cedar flute-based melodies that artfully arrange piano, guitar, harp, chimes and percussion into vibrantly hued audio vignettes. Each of the dozen tunes conjures a unique mood, a distinct sense of time and place, through a variety of themes such as "Winged Messenger", "Desert Vision", and "Mountain Heights".Holland's mastery of his flute is truly impressive; never strident, he innovatively uses breath and music to convey surprising depths of emotion that raise this exceptional ensemble record way above many of the genre. Creative use of accent instruments such as talking drum, hammered dulcimerand Tibetan bells round out each melody so that the listener is surrounded with beauty from beginning to end..... PJ Birosik - Nationally syndicated reviewer "An unusual weaving of cedar flutes and cello permeates Born Out Of Silence. The combination of strong American Indian influences coupled with contemporary instrumental stylings makes for an enchanting album. Easy to listen to.. perfect for dinner with friends as well as time spent in solitude." Steve Ryals - Fresh Tracks / New Age Retailer Magazine "Music is organized sound and all sound is born out of silence..." from the album notes. Hence the title of this release. Autumn's Child plays modern low-impact non-classical chamber music. Fronted by native American flute. Flutist, composer Mark Holland's soft-spoken assembly consists of guitar, cello, harp, piano, bass, percussion and more. To his credit, Holland manages to front the ensemble without relegating the sidemen to mere background status.
