I have to tell you about British sensation Paul Austin Kelly. Just because they're children, doesn't mean they must suffer lo-quality music, right? That's the premise behind Mr. Kelly's work. Paul Austin Kelly knows good music. As an internationally renowned tenor, when he's not on the road performing opera, he's writing high-quality music for kids.

Through Tenderwood is a masterpiece. You don't have to have children to enjoy it. It's difficult to review because it's not like any kids' music I've heard before. Mr. Kelly calls it a 'tone poem'. A series of brilliantly written and performed pieces, held together by the young child's recitation of poetical snippets.

Don't take my word for it, have a listen. Through Tenderwood has been on the iTunes UK top 10 list, and Mr. Kelly is well-known in UK. He has yet to break the scene in the US. I'm confident that once enough folks have heard his music, he'll do equally well here. Personally, I can't wait to hear his next work of art!
