MP3 Zayra Yves - Crowned Compassion
14 MP3 Songs
NEW AGE: Ambient, SPOKEN WORD: With Music
Details:
Crowned Compassion is a celebration of love by the poet Zayra Yves, who takes the listener on a soulful ride, a cosmic sojourn through time and space, embracing the spiritual as well as the provincial, exploring the textures of emotion by showing us the truth of reality, as well as the sultry passions.
Zayra’s beautiful and mesmerizing voice is accompanied by the musical compositions of two talented and gifted blues and jazz musicians: Allen Ross and Mike Thomas. The string instruments were created by Mike Thomas of Zamar Instruments.
The track ”Free Us From the Claws of Cruelty” was written for and dedicated to the people of Zimbabwe, who have endured the extreme hardships of genocide and starvation. A portion of the proceeds from this CD go to the Seeds of Light organization (https://www.tradebit.com) to benefit the children living in South Africa.
There are eight pages of serene photographs from an outdoor garden shot by Zayra Yves, as well as the lyrics to all of the poety enclosed in the jewel case of Crowned Compassion. It is a poetry book, an artistic feast, a sensual sojourn and a musical journey combined in one collection.
Zayra Yves grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area in the early 1970''s, listening to the Beat Poets at City Lights and evangelical preachers on Sundays. She has traveled extensively on pilgrimages to sacred sites around the world and continues to find new ways of expressing her art.
Her poetry has appeared in various magazines and journals, such as Zimbabwe Situation, The Panhandler Quarterly, Eyes of the Poet, IITM, and very soon in the Astropoetic and Alehouse Press. She has been interviewed and performed her work on two radio shows: SW Radio Africa (appearing on this CD) and West Marin Community Radio for The House of the Poet.
Zayra offers her love and gratitude to her many friends who supported her during this project. Crowned Compassion is dedicated to the memory of Michael Luke English.
