CD: Soul Songs of the Labyrinth Beautiful, haunting, provocative, mysterious, healing, and embracing, these chants are unlike anything you’ve ever heard before. Lisa’s ancient melodies include harmonic overtones and are combined with crystal bowls and Tibetan bells. Recorded live as people walked the Labyrinth in Grace Cathedral, (San Francisco, CA) the music will lead you on a timeless journey into the center of the Labyrinth. This CD can be used for all types of meditation and movement practices.
CD: Space/Time Phenomena This unique compilation of songs, ancient chants and poetry was recorded live from two concerts – the Presidio Chapel in San Francisco and St. John’s Presbyterian Church in Berkeley. The material is rich with emotions, ideas, beautiful music, spiritual connections and wonderfully delightful moments. If you’ve never been to a Space/Time Phenomena concert, enjoy it now. This CD will take you into the presence and joy of Lisa’s music as it was performed in collaboration with two other extraordinary, multi-talented musicians – world renowned Didgeridu master, Stephen Kent, and recording artist and percussionist, Geoffrey Gordon. Most of the audience’s applause has been edited from the CD. However, at the end we did leave in some of the cheering and someone calling out, “play all night!” Lisa’s chants come “from before the languages divided and are rooted in the tradition of vowels as the sacred language of God.”
CD: Ancient Prayers of Alia These powerful and evocative healing chants resonate an experience of ancient language within the body. They activate specific frequencies for the lower and higher level chakras. These sounds place you into a profound space of love and strength, and supports the work of healers, therapists, and body workers to create a vibrational field that encourages well being.
