Tara's Room

Product Description The two works on this cd – Tara’s Room and The Beauty of Sorrow were composed and performed by Pauline Oliveros and recorded in May 1987. Previously only available as a cassette and long out of print, Deep Listening is proud to make these wonderful pieces available on cd. The Beauty of Sorrow is intended to assist the listener in connecting and relaxing with deep feelings. The Beauty of Sorrow was played by the composer on a small accordion tuned in just intonation and using Lexicon delay processors in a version of her Expanded Instrument System (EIS). Tara’s Room is an invocation for wisdom especially during an unfamiliar journey. Tara’s Room is a multi-track recording with all materials (voice, percussion, flute) played and sung by Pauline Oliveros. Pauline Oliveros is a Composer-Performer and Founder of Deep Listening. Her life as a composer, performer, and humanitarian is about opening her own and others' sensibilities in the many facets of sound. Since the 1960's she has influenced American Music profoundly through her work with improvisation, meditation, electronic music, myth, and ritual. Many credit her with being the founder of present-day meditative music. All of Oliveros' work emphasizes musicianship, attention strategies, and improvisation. John Rockwell named her Bye Bye Butterfly as one of the most significant of the 1960's. In the 70's she represented the U.S. at the World's Fair in Osaka, Japan; during the 80's she was honored with a retrospective at the John F. Kennedy Center in Washington DC, and the 1990's began with a letter of distinction from the American Music Center and ended with the SEAMUS Award for Lifetime Achievment and the San Francisco Bay Guardian's Goldie Award for Lifetime Achievement, Review Both pieces are intended to aid the listener in times of spiritual change, but work for 'everyday' use. Highly recommended. -- Charles S. Russell, Ear Magazine
