Details:
PIANO FOR THE THIRD EAR
(Sixth Chakra)
This album is solo piano composed and played by Cyrille Verdeaux. The melodies played on this album cascade waterfall flurries of notes with a style that one French musical critic described as "oceanique". Consisting of recordings both studio and live, the tracks include "Songe de Cristal" from Clearlight Visions and "Remember Jonathan", a memorial written for Cyrille Verdeaux''s young son and previously featured on the Windham Hill Piano sampler album. The sixth chakra, located on the brow (Ajna), is said in many texts to be the site of the so-called third eye (and "third ear"). Musicians, poets and the prophets communicate by the means of this inner ear. This chakra represents the doors of perception, the key to higher consciousness, the voice of God. The Grand Piano functions as an entire orchestra keying into the resonant 6th chakra frequencies. The sixth chakra is associated with the pituitary gland, lower brain, left eye, ears, nose and nervous system. Emotional issues associated with this chakra are truth, intellectual abilities, openness to ideas of others, ability to learn from experiences and emotional intelligence. Physical ailments associated with this chakra are brain tumor and/or hemorrhage, stroke, neurological disturbances, blindness, deafness, full spinal difficulties, learning disabilities, and seizures.

Cyrille "CLEARLIGHT" Verdeaux
COMPOSER, PIANIST, MULTI-KEYBOARDIST, PRODUCER

CYRILLE VERDEAUX, native of France, was born July 31, 1949 in Paris. In 1963 at the age of 14, he entered the prestigious French National Conservatory of Music in Paris studying composition, harmony, and piano. From 1966 to
1968 he won first place in student composition three successive times.
During the student uprisings of 1968 he decided to leave Paris. He then attended the Nice Conservatory earning a Masters diploma, returning to Paris to form the band Babylone with guitarist Christian Boule.

In 1975 Virgin Records released the first album of Cyrille Verdeaux compositions titled CLEARLIGHT SYMPHONY. Clearlight became the first French progressive rock band signed to a major British record label. Gathering
accolades for its unique compositions and keyboard stylings, the music spanned from classical romanticism to lush experimentation. Cyrille Verdeaux and CLEARLIGHT toured England and Europe with the legendary band
"GONG".

Virgin Records released the second Clearlight album, FOREVER BLOWING BUBBLES in 1976. Featuring an ensemble cast of stellar players the album added jazzy
touches to the heady mix of Rock, classical and psychedelic sound paintings.
Simultaneously, Cyrille Verdeaux composed and recorded the musical score to the film VISA DE CENSURE # X by Pierre Clementi. EMI Records subsequently released the resulting soundtrack album entitled DELIRED CAMELEON FAMILY.
The movie and its score were considered important artwork. They were purchased by the French Museum of Modern Art and were often shown.

In 1977 RCA Records in Europe released the CLEARLIGHT album, LES CONTES DU SINGE FOU also known as the "mad monkey" record. Psychedelic and visionary currents explode with visionary lyrics throughout courtesy of British
vocalist Ian Bellamy. Once again the pure sound of Cyrille Verdeaux''s piano is accompanied by an army of synthesizers to create a work that is considered a progressive rock masterpiece, thanks also to the part
played by the incredible but real violinist Didier Lockwood.

The fourth CLEARLIGHT album, CLEARLIGHT VISIONS was released in 1978 by Polydor Records. Featuring virtuoso Didier Lockwood on violin, Cyrille Verdeaux took the reins of production for the first time, fusing his
classical and rock strains with the Sitar and Tabla. CLEARLIGHT VISIONS with successful tours of England and Europe, appearing in prestigious concert halls such as the Olympia Music Hall and the Cathedralof Saint Etienne du Mont in Paris.

The tragic death of his 4-year-old son, Jonathan became a catalyst for Cyrille to study and travel the World. He visited India where he studied indian music, yoga and meditation in various ashrams. The practice of these
disciplines has had a large influence on his life and his music since then.

In 1980 Cyrille traveled to the United States and released the albums OFFRANDES and NOCTURNE DIGITALES on Fortuna Records. He spent the next eighteen months in India perfecting his studies of yoga and music. When
he returned, he released PROPHECY on Fortuna Records with Bernard Xolotl and also the albums MOEBIUS and SHAMBALA on the Record Company "Soundings of the Planet".

In 1982 Cyrille teamed up with producer/engineer/manager Josh Goldstein to help reenergize his musical career. In 1983 the albums FLOWERS FROM HEAVEN, PIANO FOR THE THIRD EAR, MESSENGER of the SON and JOURNEY TO TANTRALAND
were born.

In 1984, these albums were used to create the KUNDALINI OPERA, released only
on cassette tape by Eurock.

In 1985 the album MESSENGER OF THE SON was released on Catero Records, an independent label of the famed CBS producer and engineer Fred Catero.
The
record company declared bankruptcy four months after the release, preventing it from getting proper distribution and promotion. One track from this album did receive wider exposure, a piano solo composed by Cyrille as a
Requiem for his son Jonathan. Released by Windham Hill Records on their PIANO SAMPLER album, it also was part of the video WINTER.

In 1987 Cyrille returned to France, embarking on a career teaching music while continuing to compose and produce music. RHAPSODIES POUR LA PLANETE BLEUE was released on Emen Records in 1988.

In 1994, Cyrille returned in California, especially in Santa Cruz, the native town of his children. During the summer 1994, he recorded with Santa Cruz based singer-keyboardist Gunnar Amundson a modern remake of LES
CONTES DU SINGE FOU, entitled IN YOUR HANDS. Legend R record in Europe released the resulting Clearlight record.
