Native Middle Eastern Cycle: Seasonal Invocations to the Goddess
This recording contains the music to a cycle of eight chants and Dances of Universal Peace drawn from the ancient Middle Eastern Goddess traditions. The chants use sacred phrases reconstructed from the Old Canaanite, Old Hebrew, Egyptian, Sumerian and Babylonian languages and are accompanied by flute, guitar, dumbeck and tar drum. The Dances were composed by Neil Douglas-Klotz and Kamae Amrapali Miller. This recording is dedicated to a reconnection with and embodiment of the deep feminine as expressed by the sacred names of power of our ancient ancestors.
