Soul Bird is a reflection, and an invitation. To be a listener – a live listener, in a particular moment, in a particular space – is to actively collaborate in a miraculous world of energy, of imagination, of creation. It is an invitation to spend some time inside sounds, woven from the musical fabric of centuries of minds. It is an invitation to take solace in these sounds, to find yourself among them and within them, to create your own quiet corner for reflection.
