This CD is stunning. I have listened to and used many new consciousness style music CD's over the years but this one amazes me. I have used it for my personal meditation and for clients in my healing practice. Each time I have played it for someone the first time, I told them nothing about the music or the tunings used in it. Each time the listener used similar words to describe their experiences. Words like.."I felt my heart opening." "I felt like I had traveled to a strange yet familiar place" "this sounds like my heart if it were set to music." These people had inner visions and messages and profoundly peaceful healing experiences. As a healer and a journey taker I highly recommend this journey to you.

It's one of those little known but very important facts that music that is harmonious in the ancient sense no longer exists in our society. This is due to the way modern instruments are tuned - musicians have to be able to jump from key to key, and so the ancient harmonies have been subtly broken and forgotten. Along comes Fred Cameron and takes us not just back to the days before modern equal temperment tuning (about 200 years) but back to a method of tuning that dates back thousands of years, to ancient Mesopotamia. The results are very beautiful and very unique - there is just nothing else like it. I'd personally like to see more musicians, who are usually an experimental and open-minded bunch, try the ancient harmonious tuning systems. The differences are quite amazing.
