MP3 Alki Steriopoulos - Music For Sentient Beings
8 MP3 Songs
NEW AGE: Ambient, WORLD: World Fusion
Details:
This CD, MUSIC FOR SENTIENT BEINGS, grew out of a desire to create music that would smooth the wrinkles out of the air, something to take the sting out of the million small cruelties inflcted upon us every day, as well as those brought upon by ourselves, and to bring one back to the breath, the moment, the now.
It features myself as composer and pianist, Brian Willson on percussion, Claudio Spiewak on acoustic guitar, and the inestimable contribution of my friend, Jorge Alfano, playing flutes from around the world.
To learn more about me and what I''ve done, I invite you to read on.
