Review Text
This body of work is a collaborative effort between pianist Melanie Monsour and a group in Canada dedicated to Enneagram studies and the practice of Sacred Movements. Our aim was to create 9 pieces that might express qualities of Being that emerge when constrictions of personality are released. It is our deep wish that this music will evoke these qualities and inspire you to remember and BE more fully yourself. Melanie has five Cds; a selection of Gurdjieff/ DeHartmann music called Bridge to the Unseen and four compilations of original compositions; Blue Silence, Turning in Place, A Fly in the Temple and Enneagram Inspired. Over the past decade she has performed the Gurdjieff/DeHartmann repetoire and her own work in the US, England, Australia, Canada, Italy and Russia. Melanie excels in the art of spontaneous composition which in recorded form translates into an immediate intimacy that creates a very moving experience for the listener.
