Healing Music Project, Vol. 1

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
It is a noble ambition: blend science and sound to create audio experiences with the capacity to rejuvenate, calm, and even heal. The notion has circulated for millennia, and its origins can be traced deep into Hindu and Judeo-Christian traditions (the latter with its account of David soothing a troubled King Saul with his harp [I Samuel 16:23]). The Rosyln, N.Y.-based Relaxation Company, like Steven Halpern, has based its existence on the concept and makes persuasive arguments for its theories in the well-reasoned liner notes that accompany its handsomely packaged recordings. This disc makes a persuasive audio argument as well, offering a sampler of diverse music from two venerable New Age artists, German-born keyboardist Deuter and zither whiz Laraaji, and four musician/researchers. Ranging from Deuter's 11-minute opening excursion into stillness for flute and synthesizer ("Island in the Sun") to an intriguing exercise ("Move") on Tibetan bowls, tabla, and other percussion by Barry Bernstein, a one-time colleague of Mickey Hart, the music stands well on its own apart from its medicinal claims. Does it really work? Let yourself get lost in the vocal ether concocted by Silvia Nakkach, whose specialty is exploring the space that connects notes (known as meend in North Indian music) and decide for yourself. The liner notes include suggestions for employing the music in self-guided meditations. --Terry Wood

Found this album at a Borders store and bought it because of the gorgeous cover and it seemed to call to me that day. What a wonderful treat for the soul. I bought all three (when is a new out???) and a few others on this label. Cannot recommend them enough. Unique, untraditional and wondrous. A dream in a box.
