The
inspirational, soothing sounds of the harp can be heard
on this
CD, accompanied on some songs
by
the gentle ringing of chimes.
"On
Earth, As It Is In Heaven" contains 6 songs specifically chosen
for
there ability to aid in relaxation and in order to help achieve
a more
peaceful, "heavenly" frame of mind. These 6 songs are:
(*
asterisk indicates original compositions)
Flowing
Tree *
The sound of fingers running up and down the the
strings of the harp is a beautiful, flowing stream of sound... and since
the harp is made from the finest resonant woods, you can think of the harp on
this original composition as a "flowing
tree!"
(the
music in the background on the homepage and this page is from Flowing Tree)
CALLING
ALL ANGELS *
This piece was composed on 9-11-01, as a musical prayer
in response to the attacks on New York City and Washington,
D.C.
SOMEWHERE
OVER THE RAINBOW *
A
medley of songs also including Falling Leaves*, Amazing Grace, It Came
Upon A Midnight Clear.
(I
will always think for "Falling Leaves" as "Beth's
Song." In the Fall of 2001, as the leaves were slipping away from the trees, Beth was slipping away from her body.
As a teenager years before, she had been involved in
a tragic car crash that left her paralyzed from the neck down. Now
like the leaves on the trees, Beth
was letting go of this life and passing into the next. It was
a beautiful,
moving and tearful event. There can be a beauty and a grace even in death, and this melody was
composed with that in mind.)
ROVING
GALWAY BOY MEDLEY*
A traditional Irish melody known
also as "A Maid
Who's Deep In Love." A favorite for meditation, I
first heard it on a CD of harp music by Kim Roberson, who has a number of
wonderful CD's
of
harp music available. Other songs include As I Lay Me Down to Sleep,
an excerpt from Handel's Water Music, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Falling
Leaves*.
Music
Sample 1
SUO
GAN
A simple, moving Welsh melody, whose origins are lost in the
mists of centuries past. It is believed to have originally been
composed as a lullaby, as judged from the lyrics first written down in
the 1800's to its music.

song plays in the background on the Harp Music page)

DANCING ON WATER*
