|  | | Product Description | | Stevin McNamara has gained international acclaim for his Western interpretations
of northern India’s classical music. With Prana Groove, he presents his
fifth solo album—available only via download.
Prana Groove will entrance you with Stevin’s signature acoustic
stylings, flowing freely on a current of meditative percussion. “I created
this music as an adventure into the realm of energy and movement,” he
explains. “I used the ancient musical form of raga coupled with pulse
and drum patterns found in trance and other traditions, such as Sufi Dervish
ecstatic dance. I offer it as a celebration of life, of our connection to the
earth and all living beings.”
A 60–minute journey in three movements, Prana Groove features nylon string
guitar, dilruba (a cross between the sarangi, or Indian violin, and the sitar),
and tanpura/tamboura (the traditional drone instrument of Indian music). Percussion
includes dholak, tabla, djembe, frame drum, rik (tambourine), bells, shakers,
cymbals, toms.
A great addition to your iPod’s yoga or bodywork playlist!
