Review from NewAgeMusicWorld.Com
The Pangean Orchestra is teaming up to raise money for disaster relief in Japan. Millions of people overwhelmed by the earthquakes and resulting tsunami remain desperately in need of our assistance, and people of goodwill are responding. With the ongoing crisis in Japan, help often arrives in many forms and in this case, total revenue for disaster relief in the form of free music is a trusted source for your donation.
The Red Cross Earthquake/Pacific Tsunami Fund will receive 100% of the direct proceeds from sales of a free mp3 single released by the Pangean Orchestra, which is based in Phoenix, Arizona. The director of the Pangean Orchestra is music professional Colin O’Donohoe, who leads the group of instrumentalist from nearly every continent.
Tinsagu Nu Hana – Japan Relief is the name of their free mp3 music. The sample I listened to is sung in Japanese by a tenor vocalist, and is comprised of upbeat contemporary instrumentals. Most importantly, your music purchase will make you feel great knowing you helped provide 100% direct funds for people who need our assistance during this ongoing crisis. Thanks to the Pangean Orchestra!
