These original sounds blend guitar and percussion instruments with dreamy vocals to produce a feeling of peace and harmony. The vocal compositions are inspired by monk choirs, Southern Pacific chants, and folk songs. Indian flutes, guitars, hand drums, and South American stringed instruments accompany the vocal harmonies. The music has a mysterious effect on mood and emotion. The listener is immediately enchanted and touched by the melodies.
