CD-Tipps

Auch in der Musik gibt es zum Thema schöne CDs. Einige möchte ich hier vorstellen. Auch hier kann es sein, dass der eine oder andere Titel nicht mehr oder sehr schwer zu bekommen ist.

Let It Begin Now Let It Begin Now – Music from the Spiral Dance
Starhawk and Reclaiming & Friends
Reclaiming is a collective of San Francisco Bay Area women and men working to link earth-based spirituality and eco-feminist politics.
In 1979, our vommunity held the first public Spiral Dance ritual, to celebrate not only Samhain, but also the publication of Starhawk's book "The Spiral Dance". Since then, the Spiral Dance ritual has been changed and added to, most profoundly by the inclusion of much beautiful, original music. Reclaiming has produced this recording of music from the Spiral Dance as an offering to all, that the work of renewal and rebirth might grow and flourish. Let it begin, now!

Ich bin das Lied Ich bin das Lied, das in dir singt… – Rituallieder zum Hören und Mitsingen
Kalîa Klangwelten
Endlich ist die CD mit Reclaiming-Liedern fertig. Bisher gab es sie nur in englischer Sprache. Aus der Erfahrung, dass Gesang in der Muttersprache das Innerste am meisten berührt, hat Christel schon seit llängerem begonnen, die Texte ins Deutsche zu übersetzen. Auf dem Seminar mit Starhawk und David Miller im Mai 1998 fanden sie großen Anklang.
Klingt in deutsch noch etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig. Unser Ohr scheint schon zu sehr ans Englische in Sachen Lieder gewöhnt zu sein.
Ich hab diese CD auch über Serpentine Music bestellt.
Second Chants Lady of the Lake
Lisa Thiel
"Lady of the Lake" is a reflection of a personal healing journey. It is also a portrayal of bringing the energies of spirit down into the personality realm in order to transform it, as opposed to "going beyond the personality" to attain spiritual realization.
Produced by Lisa Thiel; Recorded and Mixed by Bob Creager at Sound Decisions Studios in Tucson, Arizona; Ladyslipper, Inc., Box 3124, Durham, NC 27715

Second Chants Journey to the Goddess
Lisa Thiel
These songs and chants are inspired by many different spiritual traditions, although they are not traditional. All of these Goddesses are understood to be Life-Affirming, benevolent, consciousness-enhancing, and whose sole purpose is the benefit of all sentient beings. They are also understood to be different parts of one great whole. She of a thousand names.

Gaia, Earth Goddess Gaia, Earth Goddess – Ritual Dances of the Mother
Desert Wind
"Gaia" is an ancient Name for the all-encompassing Earth Mother. She teaches us the sacred nature of the star dust from which we are made; teaches us to honor all matter as its essence is also divine spirit. As we recognize this sacred aspect, we choose actions which are guided by spiritual principles and realize the effect of our actions upon all. Gaia teaches us to honor all creation.
Produced by Alan Scott Bachmann, 1992
P.O. Box 3722, Salt Lake City, Utah 84110, U.S.A; ASB-1001-2
Desert Wind hat eine Konstante: Alan Scott Bachmann. Mit verschiedenen Musikern versteht er es, "göttliche" Themen musikalisch umzusetzen und altes Traditionsgut nahezubringen.
Kali Ma Kali Ma – Dances of transformation
Desert Wind
Kali Ma teaches us to laugh at our fears and dance through the fires in our lives, teaches us that death is an integral part of life. The fallen fruit decomposes in the winter and fertilizes new life in the spring. Kali Ma teaches us of the universal source of creation and destruction.
Produced by Alan Scott Bachmann, 1992
P.O. Box 3722, Salt Lake City, Utah 84110, U.S.A; ASB-1002-2
Shekhina, Hebrew Goddess Shekhina, Hebrew Goddess – Restoring the balance
Desert Wind
Shekhina is the radiant presence of the Divine. She is the daughter, bride, sister and mother, the Sabbath Queen, the eternal light. She is the Torah (five books of Moses). The prayer shawis symbolize her clothing. Her name comes from the Hebrew word "shakhan" which means "to dwell". Her presence dwells within each of us and everywhere.
Produced by Alan Scott Bachmann, 1993
P.O. Box 3722, Salt Lake City, Utah 84110, U.S.A; ASB-1005-2
Mich fesselte vor allem die Tatsache, dass hier auch in hebräisch gesungen wird und sich das einfach sagenhaft anhört.
Sarasvati Sarasvati – A Celebration of World Dance
Desert Wind
"Sarasvati" is the Ancient Goddess of Wisdom; she is the patron of learning, eloquence, music, and all the arts. Her name is literally the "flowing one" as she is originally a "River Goddess". The River, source of life, is ideally associated with the "Great Mother". The Goddess of Wisdom has many names from many cultures. The rhythm of the river is connected with the rhythms of the universal wisdom consciousness. This four CD set goes beyond artifical boundaries, and focuses upon the common thread that connects all of us.
Produced by Alan Scott Bachmann, 1997
P.O. Box 3722, Salt Lake City, Utah 84110, U.S.A; ASB-1005-2
Einige Lieder sind trotz Variationen wieder zu erkennen. Aber dennoch nicht weniger interessant.
Fire Prayer Fire Prayer
Denean
The ancient ones – those unseen ones of the light – they are guiding this earth walk – surrounding us with love. It is only for us to become aware it is time. "Nature sounds, crackling fire, frame drums and rattle provide a rich backgound for songs and chants to bless our Earth Mother and our Journey here."
Produced by Dirk Darnell, 1991
Etherean Music, 9200 W. Cross Drive #510, Littleton, CO 80123-2225; 9734771012
Geht rhythmisch teilweise etwas in eine indianische Richtung.
Return Return
Sophia
Return is a potent brew of layered vocals, exotic percussion, lush instrumentation and uplifting lyrics that once again establishes Sophia as a leading visionary in her field. This music is prayer of celebration of the Goddess, in all her glorious forms, and an invocation of the Shekhinah, die Formless Feminine that inspires the Song of Creation.

Magic Love Magic Love
Thea
Thea, an initiated wicca priestress, shows us the different aspects of love. She celebrates ancient rituals with celtic and druid heritage, supported by celestial voices and some outstanding musicans in spiritual music like Asterion, who played Ch'in and celtic harp accompanied by percussionist Luigi Campala playing african, indian and original celtic instruments. Tribal beats, great choir arrangements and modern sounds build a stairway to higher grounds. The Old Religion is preparing its way into tomorrow.

Frigga's Web Frigga's Web
Hagalaz' Runedance
Frigga's Web, the third full-length Hagalaz' Runedance album, is particularly focusing on the web of life, the mysteries of birth, death, the afterlife; the goddesses Hel and Frigga and their relation. But also personal happenings in the last couple of years – the experience of death, departure and new beginning have certainly shaped the nature of this album.
