Chandra Lear
Lapis Ensemble CD



LAPIS ENSEMBLE
is the collaboration of Chandra Lear and Tryshe Dhevney, two women with a sonic vision. The blend of these two unique voices, accompanied by the healing resonance of Tibetan and Crystal singing bowls, creates a sound that both transports and transforms the listener. 
Each song is an improvisation. Called forth from deep stillness, they conjure a distant knowing while activating the harmonic resonance encoded within our human experience. Within the tapestry of these sonic codes are layers of intricate harmonies, elemental sounds and shinning overtones. They evoke a sacred space... ethereal, evolutionary and profoundly transcendent.


 
"Once we chime the bowls and their tones begin to resonate the melodies appear as if called forth from the ethers.
We sing them into being. Being fearlessly present in stillness allows, through direct inspiration, these evocative melodies their full expression."

"This amazing debut release presents a unique and totally original expression of rarified mystic states. The sense of a sacred ceremony occurring at the site of the Oracle of Delphi or some unknown sacred site in the ancient past or distant future is conjured up at once. The best part of this etheric encounter is that it creates a palpable experience of Sacred Space. On each play of the CD the space seems to appear and recede to a place that lives beyond the recorded medium. A must have for deep listeners looking for deep spaces for renewal and reflection."

"I have been enjoying your CD, daily, in my work space. I find I can listen to it for hours at a time without tiring of it and find new bits to delight in each time I listen. My clients seem to melt a little more easily in its presence. Thank you for the gifts channeled by your gorgeous voice and being."

"I was delighted and excited to receive your new CD, and I feel so proud of you for manifesting these healing sounds. I decided to do a meditation to it that turned into yin yoga session, then a full on movement yoga session followed.Your sounds evoked being inside a sacred temple within myself. it was both an ethereal improvisation and a soul soothing structure reminiscent of gregorian chants. I loved it! Thank you, thank you!"
