Breathe, You Are Pure Consciousness.
This spectacular new recording will change the way you think about music. It begins as the intriguing partnership of two world class musicians in separate domains — Jeralyn in the world of classical and Broadway singing, and Laurence in the world of jazz. In their first-ever collaboration, there is a merging of intention and musical spirit that goes beyond musical style. The unification is uplifted by the crystal alchemy bowls that Jeralyn plays like a virtuoso, infusing the music throughout, and pairing fully arranged, known songs with purely meditative/vibrational sections.
I was struck by the uncommon purity to the tones that Jeralyn produces with her crystal bowls and voice, and in the tones Laurence Hobgood liberates from the piano. These are sounds that may be familiar, but resonate with a spiritual timelessness that goes beyond what we've heard before. Add to that Jeralyn's voice, one of the foremost interpreters of Mozart, and Laurences deeply inventive harmonic sense, and you've got not just an album, but a guided journey.
The power of music to heal the mind, body, and spirit goes back 20,000 years to when ancient shamans used music to treat a wide range of ailments, from depression, to wounds, and illnesses. Modern science has taught us that music is medicine, and this album is perhaps the finest and highest demonstration of that. Listen. Become uplifted. Heal. And above all, enjoy. -
