Goddess: Divine Energy Music From India

In India, the worship of the mother goddess is a living tradition which has existed in the Indus valley civilization for more than four thousand years. This CD contains a wide variety of selections, centred on Durga, the most venerated goddess of the Hindu Pantheon. The music ranges from the bamboo flute bansuri to sitar, harmonium, percussion, female and male vocals; the famous bells of the Durga temple in Varanasi are also heard as are acoustic/electronic sounds by David Parsons.
