Kay Gardner – Sounding the Inner Landscape (1990)

To coincide with the release of her long-awaited book on music and healing, Sounding the Inner Landscape: Music as Medicine, this special long-playing project is Kay’s first recording of spoken meditations. Ordinary spoken meditation tapes merely offer music as background. This recording instead fully and deliberately utilizes the music as the primary tool, through a variety of techniques, with music composed — for flute, harp, cello, vibraphone and percussion — specifically for these meditations and instructions. Included are the Chakra Meditation, which further expounds upon the principles explored in A Rainbow Path; Lay Down Your Burden, to help the listener release whatever is causing stress or pain or any other incumberance upon joy and freedom; and an exploration of the properties and effects of various kinds of musical sounds in Inner Landscape, ending with some of her exquisite, transformational music.
