A Circle of Thirteen

Powerful and evocative songs that describe a circle of thirteen ancient spirit mothers, women of primordial wisdom and distant mythology, each holding the key to an aspect of our inner landscape. Here is woman as warrior, guardian, creator, mystic, myth-keeper and creature of the wild; woman collecting fragments of memory, resonating with earth rhythms, pushing out to raw edges and down into hidden depths. The chants and songs are accompanied primarily by the simplicity of frame drums and rattles.
