WORLD: World Traditions, NEW AGE: Healing
Details:
Jardim is a selection of songs intended to lift the spirit and open the heart. Whether the lyrics are in English or Portuguese, these songs evoke a universal mood of healing and prayer. Jardim inhabits the border regions between several musical and spiritual traditions, and the stew of influences that Rainer brings to his music leads to moments of sublime musical realization. This is new music for a new world beyond borders and rigid beliefs. This CD works well as an aid in meditation, as a companion across a dark night of contemplation, or as a powerfully focused soundtrack to a day surrounded by the jarring chaos of a modern city.
Rainer Scheurenbrand has studied classical guitar and chamber music at the Hochschule Für Musik and Theater of Hannover. He has performed all over Europe, Brazil, Israel and Russia, recorded two highly regarded CD´s with the Greek opera singer Theodora Baka, and has won various music competitions. In 1998, he was the only European guitar player in the finals of the Heitor Villa Lobos contest in Rio de Janeiro. His spiritual path has taken him from Zen, Tantra and Holotropic Breathing into a deep exploration of shamanism. As his path unfolded, he met the Brasilian musician and shaman, Carioca Freitas. Playing and traveling with Carioca led Rainer to create music as a tool for healing and spiritual growth. The unique style of his compositions is influenced by Classical Music, Celtic, Jazz, Indian, and Brazilian music. Rainer spent the last two years based in Brazil. He traveled the world playing with Carioca in Europe, Brasil, Costa Rica and Canada. He has also played with Rupesh, Darpan, Deva Premal and Miten.
Rainer dedicates this album to Carioca with a big Poim Poim!
