Our latest CD, "Bhakti," has finally arrived! Our most ambitious project to date, "Bhakti" includes guest performers on bansuri (Indian bamboo flute,) surbahar (bass sitar,) doumbek and saz, plus the choral sounds of Chaverim.
Most of the tracks on "Bhakti" (which means "devotion") are kirtans--the audience-participatory call-response singing we have come to love. Most often heard in yoga studios, kirtan is sometimes known as "yoga chant."
While "Bhakti" may not be ready for ordering in time for the holidays, if you wish to give some as gifts, email us and we will make it happen! In the meantime, we will be getting the CD to our vendors as quickly as possible, and we'll keep you posted.
