We began work on our new CD, "All Shall Be Well," at Silvertone Studios in Ardmore, PA. Salim Nair will be adding bansuri (Indian bamboo flute) and other Indian instruments from his studio in Kochi, India. This one will be much more spare and lean than the lush "Deep Mystery." We are very excited!

New Year's Eve Kirtan feedback

We got a lovely message after the NYE Kirtan at St. Martin's:

"HI Scott,
    I want to let you know how much B-- and I enjoyed listening and chanting at your kirtan last evening. Such a sacred, beautiful, and enjoyable way to release the past year and welcome the new. The memorial was also very meaningful for us. The chant that you wrote for Abbie and inviting her to lead it, I think, was the high point for us. We hope to go to the kirtan in future years, too."

​Feedback like this is so very encouraging; thanks to everyone who attended!

As part of the church's Adult Education program, Scott taught a three-part series on Interfaith Dialogue. The first session, an introduction to kirtan, filled the room with the singing voices of a a lively crowd. (The second session was on St. Francis of Assisi and Islam, and the third on Abuntu, or African Bible Study.)  (December 3, 2017, Glenside, PA)

We had a great time at Now and Zen Yoga, helping raise money and awareness for international entrants to the West Chester Film Festival. As the culmination of a weekend retreat, we also got to expose much of the audience to kirtan for the first time, which we love doing! Proprietor Wendy Keslick is a sweetheart and a joy to work with.
