Shamanic drumming by Michael Drake
“What cannot be said, may be sung.” - H.W. Long
“The aim and final end of all music should be none other than the glory of God and the refreshment of the soul.” - J.S. Bach
“It is the special province of music to move the heart.” - J.S. Bach
“The sacred music and the splendor of the ceremonies aroused a strong tide of emotion that was shared by all hearts in unison, and that awakened a consciousness of the common origin of all creatures. In this way disunity was overcome and rigidity dissolved.” - I Ching
“People in deep hypnosis explain that musical thought is the language of souls. The composition and transmission of harmonic resonance appears to relate to the formation and presentation of spiritual language. Far beyond musical communication, I'm told spiritual harmonics are the building blocks of energy creation and soul unification.” - Michael Newton
“Music, however, was the greatest cause of bringing love into the human race. As the music, painting and sculpture of the great masters came into the world, cruelty and blood-lust went out of it. The rhythmic beat of all great music, and the tonal harmonies of all great art, interprets the universal heartbeat. It reaches man's Soul by inducing inner thinking to replace outer sensing.” - Lao Russell
"Kommst Du nun, Jesus, vom Himmel herunter" (BWV 650, composed by J.S. Bach)
“The beauty of music is not in its technique, it is in the Soul of its creator. Neither is it in the sound vibrations of music, it is in the silence of the Light from which the sound sprang.” - Walter Russell
“I play the notes as they are written, but it is God who makes the music.” - J.S. Bach
“The best music has never been reduced to the printed sheet, and cannot be, for it is the immediate creation of the soul that has lost itself in the contemplation of the beauty of harmony.” - Inayat Khan
“Don't cry for me, for I go where music is born,” - J.S. Bach (to his wife on his deathbed)
