CHANTS
for Meditation & Celebration

Listen to Samples

About the Music
Simple, repeated melodies, easy to learn. In the flavor of Irish and English traditional tunes, as well as Appalachian folk hymns. Subtly rhythmic, gently earthy and heart-felt. Many are useful with circle dancing.

About the Texts
Original texts -- broadly Progression Christian, influenced by Creation Spirituality and Celtic Spirituality.  Inspirations include Biblical scriptures, Christian theology and spiritual/mystic traditions of both West and East. They are my attempts at bridging from the roots of our heritage toward fresh understandings for the 21st century. One reviewer in Ireland described the chants as "contemporary, inclusive and ecumenically sensitive."

Chant Uses
Small groups to large gatherings. Quiet, reflective contemplation to joyful, exuberant celebration. Prayer services to Holy Communion/Eucharist. Advent to Pentecost. Appealing to all ages – children, youth, adults, elders. New music for the life and journey of your community.
