With soft, sweet subtlety, the journey begins: a discovery of dissonant harmonies, ethereal beats, a fluidity of mystery, basked in romanticism. Captivate the senses as the purity of nature's timbre paints a vision of soulful serenity on a canvas of Night's sky. Explore the continuum of hypnotic expressions and infinite grooves that symbolize enlightenment, abundance and peace.
"Quieting" is an all-instrumental recording that sprang forth from an intensely quiet period of about three years when Lydia lost her singing voice. It was an inward time, what she calls "the midlife turnstile, that introspective place where one crosses the threshold into the second half of life." The fragrance of trees, seeds drifting through the forest, and the unexpected friendship of a frog. Full of childlike wonder and beauty, "Quieting" is quieting.
The album Circles was conceived as a way of assembling songs that share a sense of energy, uplift, and inspiration. The compositions create a climactic feeling of hope and motivation in the listener. Darko Saric feels most comfortable using the electric guitar to express his feelings; accordingly, all of these songs are guitar-based. The songs are instrumental, which let the listener get lost in the vibe of the music without having to think about the lyrics.
The Mass in B minor (BWV 232) is a musical setting of the complete Latin Mass by Johann Sebastian Bach. The work was one of Bach's last, although much of it was made of music that Bach had earlier composed. The mass was never performed in Bach's lifetime, and the work largely disappeared in the 18th century. Several performances in the early nineteenth century, however, sparked a revival both of the piece and the larger rediscovery of Bach's music. Today, it is widely hailed as a monumental work of the late Baroque and is frequently performed. The Mass was described in the 19th century by Hans Georg Nägeli as "The Greatest Artwork of All Times and All People".
Sitar and Surbahar virtuoso Jay Kishor describes TouchingGrace as more "vision" than band, yet the sound on Happenstance makes for a remarkably full-bodied and accessible listening experience. Happenstance combines the best elements of Western pop-melodicism with the intricately circular song structures of Eastern music. Soothing yet savvy, Happenstance a wonderful album to have on in the background at work.
Originally released in March 2004.

QUIETING is an all-instrumental recording that sprang forth from an intensely
quiet period of about three years when Lydia lost her singing voice. It was an
inward time, what she calls "the midlife turnstile - that introspective place
where one crosses the threshold into the second half of life." The fragrance of
trees, seeds drifting through the forest, and the unexpected friendship of a
frog inspired such pieces as "Hawthorn," "Cottonwood," and "Every Bug, Every
Bee, Every Breath."
Full of childlike wonder and beauty, QUIETING is quieting. There are
extraordinary musicians featured on the recording, such as Grammy Winner Nancy
Rumbel (oboe, English horn) and Jami Sieber (cello), Lee Mohler (trumpet and
flugelhorn) and Lydia's long-time group of musicians.

The Mass in B minor (BWV 232) is a musical setting of the complete Latin Mass by
Johann Sebastian Bach. The work was one of Bach's last, although much of it was
made of music that Bach had earlier composed. Bach assembled the mass in its
present form in 1749, just before his death in 1750. The Sanctus of the Mass in
B minor dates back to 1724 (and the model for one parody even to 1714). The
Kyrie and Gloria had been composed as a Lutheran Missa in 1733 for Dresden. To
complete the work, however, Bach composed new sections of the Credo such as Et
incarnatus est. These were his last major compositions.
It was unusual for composers working in the Lutheran tradition to compose a
missa tota and Bach's motivations remain a matter of scholarly debate. The mass
was never performed in Bach's lifetime, and the work largely disappeared in the
18th century. Several performances in the early nineteenth century, however,
sparked a revival both of the piece and the larger rediscovery of Bach's music.
Today, it is widely hailed as a monumental work of the late Baroque and is
frequently performed. The Mass was described in the 19th century by Hans Georg
Nägeli as "The Greatest Artwork of All Times and All People".
