PRODUCTIVITY incorporates proven psychoacoustic techniques to revitalize and renew. Using a great variety of tempi to stimulate the nervous system, the process of 'sonic isometrics' is widely employed. Simple/complex melodic arrangements alternate while changing rhythmic pulses subtly produce a tension/release cycle. These 'ear-robics' are designed for a cerebral work-out. This music is lively in pace and feels great!

PRODUCTIVITY is vital and energetic. The award-winning players of the Arcangelos Chamber Ensemble perform 17 movements by Tartini, Telemann, Bach, Vivaldi, and Lawrence. High frequency orchestration includes string quintet, flute, and piccolo. This recording enhances vitality and task completion.

Suggested usage: Mood enhancement, stress reduction, energy, computer time, projects, creative endeavors, office work, and office ambience.
