****
The album CD Temple by Thomas Barquee creates a musical
and spatial sanctuary of flowing timelessness. Barquee uses
his voice as an atmospheric instrument. His vocals are drawn
out as long toning chants to the vast chambers of infinite
mindspace. His words are not so much sung as they are released
as a natural exhalation of his inner stillness. It is almost
as though his lyrics are inspirational spiritual mantras,
while his sparse piano accompaniment chimes like distant temple
bells calling the listener to inner devotion to the Source
of Self.
Temple would be an excellent album
to play during meditation, massage, or a long relaxing herbal
bath. It definitely sets a tone of quiet, reflective contemplation.
This album CD is available from Hearts of
Space, PO Box 31321, San Francisco, CA 94131 or email: info@hos.com.
