while what I have heard has been typically overproduced to death, it couldn't remotely be called new age, nor muzak. Basically, can you imagine it playing in lifts/elevators?

It is Stephen Caudel. Yes, it is on a newage label ,but I do not consider it such - how many newages do you know that are scored for full orchestra? "Wine Dark Sea" is a wonderful lp.

Eddie Jobson was in prog bands like Curved Air and UK. His "Theme of Secrets" lp is above and beyond new age.

Wow! Someone knows Gandalf! - the Swiss one , not the American psych lp.

I just can't get over how rad the rhythms are in this song.

What did I say? Anyway, yes: Wine Dark Sea, that's the one I had (think I may still have somewhere). Sure it probably isn't new age, but as I say I've heard little. It is however closer to new age than any neo prog I could think of.

I'm pretty sure it's not Jobson, but I can't for the life of me think of his name. Very close, if not that. Ah! Eddie HARDIN. That's the one! Thanks Google!

Oh yeah I have like 25 of his albums. Definitely the closest to new age; all very nature/ecology/peace and love stuff. And I believe he's Austrian.

This is the one I was talking about.

"nature/ecology/peace & love stuff"

Starting, I believe in 1970, Atlantic Records put out a series of 11 ENVIRONMENTS sounds records.

The interesting and totally unique one is Environments 3 where side one is the 34 minute long , "be-In". Recorded in '69 in Central Park it is a slice of that slim timeline with chants, busker music,hippies recorded in the far background (with nature sounds foremost) almost like even then that whole ephermal scene was dissipating into the mists of time
