I am delighted to share with you the songs and prayers in a process to heart, my first CD. This musical journey is expressing a process of opening and discovery, of trust, faith and peace. Each song in this collection arrived like a stepping stone in a spiraled process of melodies, with and without words, with and without accompaniment. All the music has come to me at times of solitude, arriving as complete works that flow from my soul and heart, inspirations delivered whole and gratefully, joyfully, received. When there are words they are re fragments of prayers, or psalms or poems that speak to the human journey.
In this collection I feel guidance to symbolize for each of us our journey – to stand proudly sharing out voice where we are and at the same time, to know that where we are is part of every changing evolving process.
This collection of original music was 7 years in the making, and it brings together two streams that have nurtured me for many years - music and healing through prayers and songs. Maybe you will hear yourself here. May your heart’s Truth guide you.
Samples of each piece are below. Click on the song:

In 2004 I had the great pleasure to work with Marina Pinto, an artist who enjoys the gift of colour hearing. Together we developed the multi-media project Before Words Be Love. Our collaboration created 22 original pieces of music, inspired by the Hebrew Alphabet.
“There is a song deep inside you. You are born to sing a song and you are preparing. You are moving around in the stage with your dresses, but you are forgetting to sing—holding the mike, too, but you are keeping silent. ‘Til that time, you’ll be restless—until you can sing that song which you have come on the stage to sing. Doesn’t matter if you feel a little out of tune for one minute or two. Go ahead. Sing.” Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
