Songs of Samsara
My guru, North Indian vocalist Pandit Pran Nath, used to say "Everything is mixture," and in this music I seem to have come to a place where this world and what is beyond this world feel inseparable.

Bridge of Waves:
What Music Is and How Listening to It Changes the World

Who coaches Minerva's owl to hoot in tune? Why, it's none other than W. A. Mathieu. Music is the heart of a culture, and the philosophy of music is where we see the deepest values exposed. The deepest philosopher of music working today is W. A. Mathieu. This work describes music not as an isolated, abstracted system, but as a way of looking at the whole of reality and of being conscious of reality.
