Sacred Earth’s second project in their four sacred directions journey is “Wind of the North.” From the opening notes of Paul McCandless’ oboe we are pulled into a sensual world of melody and tone that in this listener’s opinion far outshines their first project, “Wind of the West.” The compositions are small masterpieces of well thought out arrangements of chanting and instrumental music infused with just the right amount of native-influenced sounds. The voice of Rita Coolidge (Cherokee) will be recognizable to the many fans of Walela and she’s joined by flute player Kevin Locke (Lakota Sioux and Anishinabe) on several tracks. All of the musicians involved in the group Sacred Earth are committed to the preservation, integrity and vitality of the earth. Their hope is that this music will take the listener on a deeper journey than “modern civilization” can offer. Use their music as a stepping stone to further your own exploration of all things sacred.
