The Drone
Accardi/Gold
 Click Here to Buy
This album has a variety of pieces with drone
backgrounds, from East Indian to Persian sounds.
The Eastern music is meditative, contemplative,
inward-seeking. The drone in its many forms
reminds us of the humming of bees, suggesting the
mysteries of the Sarmoung Brotherhood and other
ancient paths. The haunting chant, the winding
notes of the flute and the life-supporting rhythms
of the tablas reconstruct the dance of worker bees
in their search for nectar to make honey. One's
attention dips in and out, but the drone is always
there - like the endless flow of Being.

- 1. Sea of Being
- 2. Eternal Prayer
