April Adventures
April
was the 2nd month in the Roman Calendar, dedicated to Venus or
Aphrodite, which came to replace the Old English fertility Goddess
Eastermonað - known also as Eostre, Astarte, Asous. So, in the Northern
Hemisphere, April ushers in the beauty of fresh flowers emerging, the
bursting of Nature into Spring Song and the advance into abundant new
adventures, projects and connections.
Allowing
the waters of our dreams, passions and yearnings to flow abundantly is
the gift of these Easter Goddesses, whose songs call us to rise from the
embers of winter and recreate ourselves afresh.
April is full to bursting with sonic adventures - I invite you to come and sing your spring song with me
“Rose’s
own clear fountain of a voice... ripples through every nook and cranny
of these narratives, casting each plain pebble as a glistening jewel” - Stephen Hunt, fROOTS Magazine
I
wish to offer my sincere thanks to everyone who supported the album
launch, which raised over £744 for WaterAid’s life saving projects
providing clean water and sanitation for people in Ghana.
12
weird and wonderful tunes wrapped up in a rose spiral, sustainably
packaged by We-Wow, with a special PDF booklet about all the songs and
stories of the album.
£1 from every album will be donated to WaterAid.
I
feel immensely honoured to be part of this amazing event which will
feature a screening of the film, Q&A with Leon Stuparich &
Thupten Samdup, HH The Dalai Lama’s representative, music from Tim
Wheater, Joshua James Field plus chanting from Lama Lobsang and the
monks of Kagyu Samye Dzong.
