The Process of Creativity Continues


Here we are a week later and the music continues to flow and the album continues to develop and change. Now I have a track called Sunrise, and one called At The Cave, and Woven in Gentleness and Dancing My Center , and Vision Serpent.

The new album is called "A Celebration of Life and Love". It is part of the Mayan Trilogy of Ancient/Future Symphony and VIDA, and is definitely a celebration of all of nature. So, it is also a part of the Emergence, Radiance, Heart of Sky/Heart of Earth group. And....because it celebrates the gentle quiet center that supports our life journey, it joins the music of The Journey of Joy, The Beloved, and Mystical Rose. The drum in the photograph is my Copan, Honduras drum and it plays on several tracks in the new album. It is particularly alive for these recordings!

There is a special lightness to this new music....and a new lightness to my life. Everything is simplifying and becoming easier.

With the lightness and ease of this new album, comes a change in my marketing. I am following the good example of JC Penney and moving all of my prices to one price for the entire year. No special discounts, no sales. If you go to my order page, you will see only one link. The distributor and wholesale links are gone. The price for all CDs reflects the reality that I do not have any layers of people handling the sales of my music so no need for built in monies for them. When people order from my website....there is just me, and you are getting the benefit. Prices of CDs on my website are now $6.50 all of this year and that includes my new CD "A Celebration of Life and Love". If a person or organization orders more than $200, they get an additional 20% discount. Shipping and handling is free for 20CD orders and more.

I have also simplified the structure for Original Music composed for individuals. This was formerly called Soul/Deepbody Music.
10 minutes of original music for you is $100. 30 minutes is $300. No other price structures but a person can still pay for a full 30 minutes in payments if they wish.

The new financial structures for CDs and also for Original Music should be up on my website by Monday, February 13.

So, here I am again, sitting in my office early in the morning (REALLY early today!) with my cup of coffee and my candle and my music playing, writing to all of you. It is still dark outside with dawn a few hours away yet. An arctic front is moving in and will bring very cold temperatures and snow tomorrow. Life continues!
Love to all.

In the Natural Timing of Things

Hi everyone..... Two weeks ago I recorded the final 10 minutes of the Wisdom Ablaze album, received the digital CD for the artwork of the cover (Ann Beeching original) and the music master is ready to go to National Media. It is part of a three CD series on Wisdom. The Wisdom music began with the album " A Celebration of Life and Love " which was released in 2012.  The third track is called Wisdom, and this album explores the various aspects of living in the warmth of Wisdom Fire:  Dancing in Lightness of Spirit, Sacred Voice, Woven in Gentleness, and A Gentle Touch.  Track three, Wisdom, emerges from Track one: At The Cave, and Track two:  Sunrise. A year later, I completed Wisdom Enters The World In Love . This powerful music again brings the place of the Wisdom Cave (Track one), the Wisdom Mountain (track two)….both sacred places of birth…..then we have the aspects of Wisdom:  (track four) Wisdom Dances the Waters, (track five)Her Gentle Voice, (track ...

Music supports the world around me

Several weeks ago I received a phone call from a hospice nurse in Honolulu. She had a patient who was dying and listening to The Beloved was the only thing that could calm her down. She later called to say that this person had died peacefully while listening to The Beloved. That is why I do what I do. Creating and performing the music that comes to me is not done to sell music and make sales, but to bring into the world a quality of beauty and connection into the individual's inner world that is transformative. The ducks in this photo were hatched right outside of my mom's front window. The mother duck came out of the marshes to build her nest where mom could see it every day. Aren't they cute! It's amazing the beauty and the joy in nature. My mom is going through an important journey in her life right now, and family is very supportive of her in this time of transition. Thus, you are not hearing as much from me, but we are alive and well. Mayan Dream Producti...

The Journey

Image
This photo was taken in a nature preserve in Indiana and it is now covered in snow. We are under a winter storm warning...expecting another "many" inches of snow and it is beautiful. I loved this path because it reminds me of Copan, Honduras. I chose this photo for today's Musings because it calls forth the journey into the unknown which is my life and yours. The economic news yesterday was very bleak.. a couple of million people without work and without health insurance. Many millions more without enough work to actually buy enough food and to pay for the basics of life. The stock market falling....companies closing or downsizing. The political news was bleak....war.....terror....poverty across the world. And yet.....the unknown journey continues. We don't know really what this means. The planet is massively shaking off one form of living life based on an outer and inner masculine structure that created an artificial and very destructive life. The sacred femi...
