read of synchronicity during recording session
Composer and leader of the group Hanne Tofte Jespersen tells:
”I discovered that small tunes and themes emerge when I meditate
on texts from the mystery traditions.
So afterwards I quickly write down the motives and later compose on the basis of them. In a way a kind of archeological work of the mind which for me has proved a way to composing."

“Our remote ancestor Enoch rose in Vision into the Inner worlds of Creation, and their Mysteries were revealed to him. In the noise and haste of our modern world it is not so easy to reach into those worlds. But this haunting and evocative music will lift you up, support with sound and rhythm, and carry you on an imaginative journey where you can experience their wonder and mystery for yourself.” - WENDY BERG, UK
