This music is a celebration of life. A touching depth and rich range of experience are expressed on a broad palate of sound, ranging from nature sounds, acoustic guitar & ethnic drums, to sweet flutes & violin.

Insider Notes
The Higher Ground CD was recorded at the same time as the Closer to Home CD, yet they sound distinctly different. These songs are slightly more recent, and while there are crossover instruments like harmonica, accordion and ethnic drums, the added flavors of flute, violin and nature sounds give this body of music a character all its own.
There are slow, thoughtful tunes as well as upbeat numbers, and a lot of variety true to my personal nature. Many melodies written after focusing on key concepts, experiences and themes have been shared at seminars that empower and inspire others. One song features water glasses as an instrument, and if you look at these songs in the Lyrics section of the blog, you just might find it. Check the song credits.
As always, making music is an incredible joy, and co-creating with others amplifies the fun that much more! I hope the love and joy come sailing through, as well as other unexpected gems in the infinite quest for higher ground.
