NEW AGE: Meditation, SPOKEN WORD: With Music



Details:
Rachel Dacus's poetry and lyrics interpreted dramatically, with sound effects and music, combine to create an hour's stress-releasing, whimsical meditation. The CD includes group and individual readings and four songs, taking the listener into the shining core of the everyday. The poetry reveals a special sparkle of divinity glinting not just in the obvious places, but at an auto repair shop, a ballet class, and tucked inside a purse.

A God You Can Dance takes the listener through a constantly changing aural landscape for a program as varied and refreshing as summer weather. Listen to it while commuting, cooking, or on a walk. A booklet contianing all the poems is included.

One reviewer called this recording: "Like the inner monologues we usually have during the day, but always with a twist. If you like Billy Collins or Rumi, you'll like this."

Readers: Dana Evans, Ken Hastings, Leslie Linn, David Dacus and Rachel Dacus. Musical score: Gary Leuenberger. Additional music and effects: Christopher Krotky and John Alevizakis.
