Update: 2012-07-23
Description
The Amazon rainforest gets over nine feet of rain per year. Add to that it's perpetual spring climate, and you've got the perfect conditions for an explosion of life. Indeed, rainforests are home to over half the world's species. One of it's most mysterious lives in the Amazon River, the pink river dolphin, or Boto. People of the rainforst believe the Boto posesses magical powers and lives in a great city beneath the water, called Encante. Take a journey with me now into the realm of the Boto and see if the surreal beauty and sheer magintude of life makes a believer out of you. Deep thanks to the musicians and natural sound artists that contributed to Our Blue World: Mannheim Steamroller's "Chakra 4" from Fresh Air 7, Himikami's "Eldorado to the East" from Journey to Zipangu, Richard Souther's "Return to Emerald Forest" from the Narada Wilderness Collection, and Peter Davidson's "Soft Light" from Winds of Space.
