The majestic and relaxing qualities of a magnificent ancient instrument are celebrated in this collection of pristine performances where we hear David Michael in his element, serving up soothing melodies as deep reflections of nature and prayerful offerings for peace in a troubled world. The warm, gently rocking effect of the Celtic harp makes the music suitable, not only for thoughtful contemplation, but for massage, yoga and other healing arts whose practitioners have relied on David's music for years.

This album features solo harp until the final 15-minute piece Methow Reverie where David is joined by Richard Russel (AKA Rick Henderson) on sarode, a 25-string fretless lute from India. These two musicians have collaborated for decades. Richard’s playing on the Petals in the Stream CD helped propel that recording to international acclaim. He also plays a prominent role on the recent Confluence album.
