Sacred River - Gandalf
List Price: $14.95
Inspired by Siddhartha, who learns
from the wise old ferryman to listen carefully
to the voices of the river until he hears
the eternal song of oneness and harmony.
Gandalf invites you to imagine yourself
in a boat on the Sacred River, letting the
music be your ferryman, taking you gently
across the water.
Gandalf intricately weaves
the sounds of acoustic, classical, and electric
guitars with keyboard, percussion and piano
for his enchanting sonic tale.
"Flowing water has inspired
me since I was a child, when my favorite
playground was at a small creek behind my
parents' house. The sound of the rippling
water stimulated my fantasy and made my
mind go wandering to imaginary places. Years
ago one of my journeys led me to one of
India's holy rivers, the Yamuna, an experience
that had deep impact on my life ever after.
People would come from near and far to bathe
in the sacred water to get washed from their
sins and release from the wheel of reincarnation.
Night and day the air is filled with the
chanting of holy mantras, a scenery of humility,
love and joy." - Gandalf

Reviews:
"For clients who want to relax to sounds
reminiscent of flowing water, Gandalf’s
Sacred River mixes acoustic, classical,
and electric guitars with keyboard, percussion,
and piano. Inspired by Siddhartha, Herman Hesse’s
famed character who learns to listen to the voices
of the river, this collection of music, with songs
like Take Me Gently Across the Water,
is ideal fro meditation, yoga, or simply relaxing
and escaping from the hectic world for awhile."
- Nicole Palmieri, American Spa Magazine
"Gandalf’s New Age creation of water
music is one of the most tranquil recordings I
have ever heard. His compositions are always light
and yet full of musical substance. It is very
difficult to find such blessed peace in life and
I suggest you find the Sacred River in your heart
and your mind and allow yourself to join in the
stream."
