The Silk Orchestra

This is the self-titled debut album by The Silk Orchestra. Inspired by the practice of tai chi chu'an and the martial arts, this all-Canadian World Beat / New Age ensemble recording features a blend of traditional Chinese instruments, electronic keyboards, voice & percussion. Fifteen songs, ranging in style from quietly contemplative to dynamic and energetic, explore the art of balance and harmony in this Eastern discipline.

Small Sky Breathmusic

Small Sky, Breathmusic was inspired by the practice of tai chi breathing, also know as "chi kung" or "qi gong". The music is designed to imitate the natural flow of breath along the body's hidden energy pathways, and to guide the listener into a more expansive breath awareness. It is my belief that this music is well-suited to accompany any form of conscious breathing, including meditation, yoga, reiki or massage.

First Light

First Light is a collection of serene and thoughtful melodies, which evoke the universal landscapes of the heart. Voice, woodwinds, strings, percussion, and electronic instruments create a series of timeless musical reflections.

This, my first album for Serenity, retains a special place in my heart. Each of these eleven pieces of music retains an individuality that makes, I hope, for a very entertaining album. My thanks to Rob Whitesides-Woo for sharing with me his insights into what makes the Serenity label so unique in the field of healing music. Also to my many musical friends here at home in Canada.
