Sacred Spirit
by
Various Artists
As Gregorian chants were to Enigma and Pygmie tribes
were to Deep Forest, so is the Native American culture to
"Sacred Spirit." On this self-titled release,
ancient Native American ceremonial chants are blended
with contemporary dance, pop and world music elements.
Through the variety of diverse musical styles, this
examination of the Native American culture documents a
fascinating world that is respectful of its subject while
displaying an inviting accessibility. Producer and album
creator Klaus Zundel wisely allows the contemporary and
ambient influences to take a backseat to the simple
beauty and majestic power of the stirring vocal chants.
With invaluable contribution from several Native
Americans, including Jard Gorbohay, SACRED SPIRIT
benefits from the unlikely, but intriguing blend of
modern technology with traditional Native and world music
influences.
