Happy Breath

The music of Hildegard von Bingen (1098-1179) is incredibly powerful and enduring. Composed over 800 years ago, her music is still performed today. This selection "Happy Breath" is from the album Felix Anima and is performed on harmonica and shruti box. The swirling sea of reeds this combination of instruments presents is transformative and energizing. Please enjoy.

Thank you! Very nice melody and timing of sounds going in and out with the breath. The sound becoming louder and then fading made it very smooth with the in breath-holding and then the out breath releasing. Just beautiful timing!

A very expressive way to play Hildegard’s music. Well suited. Thank you.
