5.0 out of 5 stars Healing Music for People and the Planet, March 29, 2004

Michael's connection to the essence of nature is sublime and beautifully aligned with the lyrical rhythm of one day with the river spirit where the world just floats away. Listening to his CD during my morning meditation and in the evening after work, it instantly soothes me, centering my soul. His musical artistry and diversity are apparent with his multi-level solo use of many instruments and moods. Recently, the ultimate knowing showed how clearly Michael understands and resonates the Earth's voices. When "The River" is playing while working in my garden there are two magnificent Cooper's hawks that always come to sit in the Southern magnolia and call along to his music. Now I have realized other birds also begin singing that are silent before he plays for them. We are all very blessed to have Michael's extraordinary music flowing now, as well as his incredible books, to help our souls sing and for healing all creatures and our precious Earth. We look forward to much more from Dr. Michael DeMaria.

I listened to Michaels's music almost continuously the weeks before a recent murder trial, in my car, at my office and at home while preparing alone. This is the period of time when intense preparation is an absolute must and when the stress and anxiety associated with doubts of my own inadequacies and self doubts abound. His music soothed, comforted and reduced my fears and took me to a place where I felt less stress and more creativity. I look forward to him creating another great album. I am buying The River for several of my trial lawyer friends across the country. I would recommend it highly for anyone who has stress in their lives or with their work. I would recommend it for anyone.

Another fine creation by the artist. Clients appreciate this CD and I do as well. A favorite for creating a healing environment during my sessions. A journey into exploration of the self.
