A Personal Experience

As I listen to the space music on this April night, I’m completely drawn in, by the personal and deep connection I feel … the story is full of emotion, sometimes clear, but often swirling with colors and lines not of this world. This music I listen to is like my own creation, on a spiritual level. I feel complete, understood, inspired … validated. Why do I rush to tell others? The contentment is full of meaning inside, cannot be explained and finally does not need approval … my self contained existence spins with energy I receive from this music, and I in turn sing with my soul as it soars through my flute.

Life has detail and outlines of promise as I open the flow of music to the universe – what laid broken in my essence now has wings – hope is full in this world of sound, shimmering spirit full of warmth, leaving the harsh lonely winter in the distance. It is time for celebration, embraces … the shower of cleansing rains wash away all that weighs me down … can you feel the freedom and serenity?  The lightness smiles as it floats away, not able to stay … my feet touch the ground as the dark sky returns and the storms rumble once more …

Writing music from the heart

So often music is labeled and analyzed into its appropriate box, nailed shut and stored away. I write from the heart, sometimes flowing emotions that lift you throughout the day, journeys of thoughtful reflections, or into a peaceful sleep. The connection is yours to make, without limits. The smooth lines of the flute feel like pure energy when played and I enjoy the live creation of the moment, a repesentation of time, a journal entry in my life.

I will share my inspiration, although words rarely can express what I feel when composing.

  • Wandering Thoughts - persistent focused ideas interrupted by distractions of the day, memories, and projections.

  • Glassified - sheer view with longing to move faster into a scenic soundscape.

  • Breathe In - inhaling the good, exhale the bad, relaxation, peacful, calm.

Enjoy these ambient flute samples at Cari Live.

Thank you for taking the time to listen.
