Deborah Judith is a concert pianist, composer and healer. After a great spiritual crisis transformed her entire outlook on music and life, she devoted herself to the study of conscious music as a universal healing and transforming agent. Deborah has composed and recorded her own unique style of music, notable for its beauty, spontaneity and essential clarity. It is music designed to heal and calm the heart, body, mind and spirit. It enables the listener to enter meditative feeling spaces, allowing one to embrace the gentle beauty within. Her highly acclaimed CD's are used by teachers, massage therapists, artists and many practitioners of the healing arts.
Transcendental Music
Deborah Judith's music has been called neo-impressionistic, but in its aim and focus the term transcendental music might be more appropriate.
Her first 3-CD release, "Evolving Heart Harmony 1, 2 & 3", was performed and recorded in preparation of, during and just after the conscious conception, gestation and natural home birth of her daughter Harmony Light. "Evolving Heart Harmony follows the flow of spontaneous feeling. Most of the pieces on EHH were created when I was pregnant with Harmony. Any piece with Harmony in the name is dedicated to her and her presence within my body and in my life. The music is best listened to in a gently focussed space with time to hear it all and just be present. It also makes wonderful background music."
Six months later, the raga-like "Mantra Mandala" was released. "Mantra Mandala is based on a short theme or motif. That should be easy to hear as it is presented individually at the beginning of the first few tracks. That is the Mantra - the repeating of a phrase over and over as the focus of one's meditation. Each piece or movement explores different ways of playing the mantra - different registers - high/low, different combinations - right hand mantra /left hand tones that explore various harmonies with the mantra and then reversing - left hand mantra/right hand harmonious counter tones. The mantra moves all over the range of the keyboard. Tracks 1 and 2 explore the mantra higher up then lower down. Starting at about track 3 or 4 they begin to shift from hand to hand. Then both hands are simultaneously playing the mantra, reversing and inverting it. The music forms geometrical patterns. Usually, the Mandala refers to visual symmetry. This music Mandala is aural symmetry."
Over the course of a year, Deborah Judith held a special series of concerts, "Music From The Heart", which featured performances of some of her classical repertoire. These intimate soirées played before packed audiences invited from the local community. The first recording to emerge from these concerts was "Classic Symmetry", a wonderful array of some of the most beautiful compositions written for classical piano. The next in the series, "Classic Co-Creation", will be released in late summer 2005.
Also due for 2005 release, is the long-awaited 2-CD set of new original compositions, "Ocean Of Grace". The brilliance, depth and warm intimacy of her playing are evident on the track Dancing The Eon, which has also been included on the compilation album, "A Handful Of Light". In the new year, a marvelous live concert performance of the conscious music compositions of G. I. Gurdjieff, Thomas de Hartmann and Deborah's own work was released in March, 2005. Entitled "Sacred Vibration" this luminous work is a must have for anyone interested in transcendental music.
Music without words means leaving behind the mind. And leaving behind the mind is meditation.
Meditation returns you to the source. And the source of all is sound. — Kabir
