notes
"Romanza", features this duo's signature sound of melodic, romantic standards with an international flair. Melding Latin, Classical, Gypsy, Celtic and Klezmer elements, their style is a musical conversation using hammer dulcimer, harp, guitar, guitar synthesizer and voice.
Originally conceived as a "gig" recording, reflecting the artists' performance repertoire, Romanza grew into a more ambitious project, expanding to include melodies from a variety of musical traditions.

The perfect gift for all the romantic fools in your life.
author: Anita ChristyPut this CD at the top of your gift list for all those romantic fools who enjoy beautiful tender music. Ariel Strong's renditions of wonderful songs we hardly hear anymore captures your heart with her haunting Celtic voice. The purity of the instrumental music entwines with Ariel's lilting voice and makes you feel as though you aren't in this world anymore. You are weightless. I highly recommend this lovely CD.
I love it.
author: Lois BurksHi! Your mother sent Romanza to me right after you recorded it. I've really enjoyed listening to it, and thinking about you playing with our bassett hound, Beau, in Vista!!!
Well worth it! The music stays with me long after hearing it.
author: Sarah WilceIt is Laurel StrongMuehl's singing that gives this CD its subtle, haunting quality. And the duo's fine instrumental voices enhance her rich yet simple melodies. Listening to Romanza leaves me at peace, transported to another time and place, with Laurel's singing lingering in my mind for a long time thereafter.
