Following the Circle

Descripción

Following the Circle is both sacred music and medicine; the music was composed and performed through Dik Darnell, who is adopted and has been instructed in the medicine way by of of the truly great medicine men and Ceremonial Chiefs of our Native American tradition. Some of the power of this music magic is in its ability to be gently evocative for reflective journeying and at the same time supportive of the focus needed for deep healing. With synthesizer, rattle, grandfather drum, voice, and the sounds of nature, Dik Darnell evokes Native American celebration of the 24 hour bio-cycle. The music comes through Dik's heart in both ancient and modern ways. The sacred turtle shell rattle has been handed down for over three centuries. His chants feel even older. The synthesizer is modern while the traditional Sioux flute and the ceremonial drum are of ages somewhere in between. Amongst all these instruments are sounds of nature, including insects, birds, whales, ocean and the elements.
