And the very discreet keyboardplayer Ram Dass Singh Kalsa, who also plays some meditative clarinet-soloes, just as Snatam occasionally picks up her violin. The brilliant tablaplayer Manish Vyas, who has recorded with the likes of Deva Premal and Prem Joshua, besides releasing a string of fine soloalbums. With GuruGanesha Singh Kalsa on guitar, who certainly looks like a guru with turban and long white beard and plays some delighful fills and solos. She is not affraid to take risks on stage, and here she is accompanied by a small but very accomplished band. She may not have the most wonderful female voice ever heard, but she sings from a pure Heart, bound to touch the listener and open his/hers heart too. And where many activists only talk about peace, Snatam actually embodies and emanates it. These beautiful recordings was made during some North American shows on her ongoing Celebrate Peace Tour. Also, there is a 45-minute video program on seperate DVD enclosed with the audio CD.įans of Sarah McLachlan and Loreena McKennitt will love this album.
Words to snatam kaur ong namo live version skin#
This will provide far greater rewards than a trinket, garment or skin lotion. If you want to give someone a great gift then give this album. If you want music that will put you in great frame of mind you have your answer. This album is great for anytime of the day or situation, whether driving in heavy traffic, cruising, relaxing after a hectic day, or simply getting out of bed. Also, all her musicians sing backup vocals. She is accompanied by GuruGanesha Singh Khalsa on guitar Manish Vyas on tabla and, Ram Dass Singh Khalso on keyboard and clarinet. Snatam besides singing, plays harmonium, violin and guitar. They were culled from live performances in Berkeley, California Ashland, Oregon Coeur D'Alene, Idaho Titusville, New Jersey and, Victoria, British Columbia.
The seven tracks range in length from 7 to 14 minutes and have a total running time of 74 minutes. Santam's singing of such is truly inspiring regardless of your religious cult or belief.
For example, track two is "Ong Namo," which means "I bow to the subtle divine wisdom." Track three is "Ong Sohung," which means "I am thou." Track four is "Gobinda Hari," which means "God the Sustainer and support of all" (Gobinda) combines with "God the fresh, beautiful, absolutely potent healing energy," (Hari). Words are pathetic expressions but those that immediately come to mind are "celestial," and "angelic." Moreover, her voice and prayers rise far above religions and religious doctrines. Calling this album good is like saying GOD is good. If there are angels then Snatam certainly is one. I feel like a poseur trying to review this album because I have far to go before rising to the level of Snatam. I bow my head to GOD and give thanks for Snatam Kaur who embodies the words "heavenly beauty".
