Absolutely Stunning

| I'm neither a musician nor even close to expert in meditation, but I do tend toward being "careful-analytic" in my thought generally, am deeply moved and comforted by both "Western" and "Eastern" music and, while hardly a guru, take meditation seriously. I thought the music of Ambience was stunning for its clarity and its "message," whatever that might be for the listener. It somehow involved more than the auditory senses-most notably also time, feeling, perhaps even space. And hearing one of its pieces for the first time, I thought my father was playing his shaku-hachi (or whatever the simple Japanese bamboo flute is called). I believe that Ambience is not at all in conflict with Christian or other religious beliefs. I see it as a really remarkable collection of music. Quite a gift from RichArt for those of us seeking a time for solitude and reflection. |
