Album Notes

Hello....I greet you as friends and invite you to share my sacred creative journey.

Mayan Dream and Dancers of the Flame were recorded because of my own awakening experience in the late 1980\'s. After my first trip into the Mayan lands, I had a dream about a priestess walking through the rain forest at night in a large ancient city. Research identified the city as Tikal...a place I had never been to, but accurately dreamed about. The Mayan Dream music was born, and the cover of the CD Mayan Dream/Dancers of the Flame has an original painting of the priestess of Tikal from my dream.

I had a similar powerful transformative experience with Dancers of the Flame. This was about five years later and I was in the large caves in Mexico in a place of initiation for the ancient Maya (This is in real life, not a dream). The stalactites in this cave were pitched with certain tones used for healing and a shaman guide showed me this healing process. Coming home, the sacred music called Dancers of the Flame was created.

Mayan Dream and Dancers of the Flame were originally recorded as analog recordings, and then digitally remastered to remove some of the analog noise in 2000. This music has a depth and richness which supports your journey into your own sacred space. My instruments are the Kurzweil keyboard and various drums and percussion instruments. With them, I opened to The Heart of Everything and surrendered into creating the instrumental music of Awakening, Danse, Indwelling and Dancers of the Flame.

I am grateful that I can send my music along to you via CDBaby. May it be a source and inspiration to you of joy, inner peace, and passion for your life journey.

If you love the artwork on the cover of Mayan Drean/Dancers of the Flame, you will want to consider purchasing a print from the artist, Ilene Satala. Prints are available on my website: www.mayandream.com.
