Calming Music 2

John Barnard, who studied classical piano for eight years during his childhood in England, reconnected with his musical roots after a 30-year hiatus. This journey led to the release of his debut album, 'Beyond The Clouds'.

To date, Barnard has produced four albums: 'Beyond The Clouds', 'The Changing Years', 'Araluen: A Place of Singing Waters', and 'When Your Eyes Kissed Mine', along with occasional late-night improvisations.

In a review by Ben Ohmart, he notes, "John Barnard’s music taps into the new age sensibility within us all. His ability to delicately weave piano melodies with string instrumentation creates an atmosphere that can evoke deep emotions and provide a soothing alternative for those seeking relaxation."

Originating from Australia, Barnard offers listeners an elevated experience, channeling the metaphorical clouds above into sound. Interestingly, his string compositions are produced using keyboards, a choice that several listeners have remarked sounds superior to traditional arrangements.

The music serves as a tool for introspection and serenity, appealing to a wide audience regardless of belief. As Ohmart aptly puts it, "Who knows, this might be what heaven will sound like."

This application features ten carefully selected tracks from Barnard's four albums, designed for seamless enjoyment. For optimal user experience, it is recommended to install on your SD card.

A timer feature is also available through the Play Store at no cost with the download of 'Sleep Timer (Turn Music Off)'. This allows users to set a duration after which the audio will gently fade and stop.

For those interested in exploring further, there is a 23-track version available for purchase entitled 'Calming Music 2' priced at $3.49.
