MUSIC IS POWERFUL!
REVIEWS of DOUG VOLZ's PIANO CDs
PREMIER EDITION and THE PRAYER

"Music is the universal language of our souls. It heals, inspires, and calms us. I love DOUG VOLZ's music! He expresses such beauty and tenderness through the keys of the piano. Doug chooses music that opens your heart and soul to the inspiration, love and compassion within us, and that is why I had Doug's music playing in the background for hours as I wrote my first book "SPIRITUAL INTELLIGENCE". Doug's sensitivity flowing through his music will sooth, comfort and delight you!"
- Barbara Halcrow, Vancouver, BC, Author, Presenter, Healer [barbarahalcrow.com]

"The moment I heard Doug's first music I had this feeling of peace come over me! It's truly a blessing listening to his songs, without words. One never gets tired playing it over and over"
Charlene H (Age 87), Longview TX

"We really learned to appreciate Doug's music. Our Dad suffered from Alzheimer's Disease and at times could become quite agitated and sometimes violent. We would lay him down on the bed and put Doug's piano CD on and almost immediately he would calm down and even a slight smile might appear on his face.
- The Hanson Sisters, White Rock, BC

"I think Doug's music is so inspiring that it makes me want to do great things. It's so comforting, with all the chaos around me right now, it's my solace. If I could play the piano, this is exactly the style I'd use. I have both CD's in my car and his music is all that I play in my car now. Everyone who rides with me says "Wow, what beautiful music!"
- Cynthia S (Teacher), Houston TX

"I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Doug's latest CD. It is so soothing, relaxing and beautiful. It's almost mesmerizing which is why I don't put it on in my car. Congrats Doug!
- Diane B, Welland, ON

- Cory S (Teacher), Austin TX

"Thank you for your 2 CD's. They are truly wonderful! I recently returned from 4-day driving trip to Kitimat, your CD's accompanied me all the way!! My son Adrian (who is autistic) has your CDs now and is really enjoying them. Most nights he falls asleep listening to them. You produce Heavenly Music!"
- Meredith N, Salmon Arm BC

- Loisann R, Elyria OH

"I am a new fan of Doug's piano. Although my husband is NOT a lover of piano music he just LOVES Doug's music. When DON'T CRY FOR ME ARGENTINA comes on when we are in our vehicle he makes me be quiet so he can hear every note. He thinks Doug is VERY talented!
- Sherry B, Daingerfield TX

"My sister Jutta and I keep listening to your CD's, so enjoyable! Thank you so much for sharing your music with us. As I sit in my cabin, I can see the trees move and listen to your piano, the world is at peace…"
- Sibylle B, Liverpool NS

"I still play BOTH of Doug's CD's ALL THE TIME! Your CDs seem to have a very beneficial effect on autistic students - a very positive, soothing effect on them. I purposely played it with the classroom door open so other teachers on my wing could hear it"
- Carolyn B (Teacher), Daingerfield TX

"I find your CD's very enjoyable. I especially appreciate the simplicity, purity and clarity of using just one note for the melody in many of the selections when so many pianists embellish to the max with fancy arpeggios and other flourishes"
- John L (Musician), Salt Spring Island BC

"I play his CD all the time at work as we only play instrumental music in the office. Boy is he good! My boss just loves it and always comments - "I just love that CD!" Everybody in the office loves the CD especially me!"
- Amy S, Findlay OH

"Doug's music is phenomenal, such passion, so rich, such deep tones"
- Peggy S, Marietta TX

"Just wanted you to know that my son Kyle is now 22 months old and he still has to sleep with his DOUG CD. If it's not playing he will scream bloody murder until you turn it on.
- Eric F, Dallas TX

"I play Doug's CD over and over again and find it so soothing and so relaxing to put it on after a stressful day. It has so many of my favorite songs"
- Eva A (Age 85), Daingerfield TX

"11 years ago husband Steve began to lose his memory and he began the journey of a patient of Alzheimer's. He is now in the final stages living in a brand new nursing home with wonderful staff. Just wanted you to know your music does help a very difficult situation in the home as it calms him down. The piano music (which I love) is so soothing and peaceful. Each selection is beautifully played, he loves this music!"
- Shelly C, Hutto TX

"How wonderful! We love Doug's latest CD, it is well worn already. It's quite the accomplishment to sound so good playing solo. Most record with backup instruments to enhance their sound. Bravo Doug! It will be a treasure for life"

- Mary Ellen F, Burlington ON

"Thank you for Doug's latest CD, it is a Masterpiece! Ray and I have listened to it many, many times. Thank you for sharing his gift with us!!"
