June 2017


Dear Wonderful Friends of Healing Music,

HAPPY SUMMER!!!!  I hope that you are enjoying these beautiful days of sun and rain and birdsong and green green everywhere! So lovely.

And I hope that you had a Happy Solstice! I had a wonderful evening of sound and ceremony playing with Mark Daniel at Akasha's Den in Oakville.  Thank you Mary for hosting us in your fabulous new location!!!



Mark and I also played in June in Ottawa at the lovely Adi Shakti yoga centre - which also has a beautiful new location in Orleans! Big thanks to Ram Das for hosting us, a lovely, lovely event.

It is a remarkable time - so many new energies and new things happening! And for me a new flute has just arrived. A beautiful North American Flute made by Rommy on Vancouver Island. It is a hummingbird on a pear tree! Pear wood with painted butterflies. It is gorgeous! And the sound is sweet like pear juice.... I will be teaching with this pretty new flute. And I'm sure it will end up on a recording and played during a Music Meditation!



I had a thrilling encounter with Aaron Neville - one of my favourite singers of all time! He has the voice of an Angel..... We had a little chat and luckily I had my Sacred Sounds Trilogy CD with me and gave him one. What a nice meeting!



SUMMER EVENTS:

I am looking forward to playing at the Toronto Reference Library on July 11, 6:00pm, sponsored by our 'Music Can Heal' Association. www.musiccanheal.org  I will be talking about healing music and my spiritual journey and will be offering a Music Meditation.
