Chakra Suite Reviews
One key at a time up and down the keyboard repeatedly is just really too minimalist for me. The music is simple with single keystrokes moving at a slow rate. This CD for me didn't quite make the cut for chakra healing in comparison to other sound therapy and chakra balancing CDs that I own. The "Tantra of Sound Harmonizer" by Jonathan Goldman is one of a few of my all-time favorites. Halpern is a well-respected artist in the field with many years of experience and I don't discredit that he has a feel for what he is doing, however, I am disappointed with the musical composition of Chakra Suite. The music is relaxing to a degree for me, but also becomes annoying with the climbing up and down on the keyboard. It is, after all a sound therapy and healing CD, so simple works, but in this case for me, less is not more.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking for something complicated. As many times as I have tried to get through a meditation with this CD, I have always ended up shutting it off and switching to something else because of this. I will be sticking with my other chakra balancing CDs and continue looking for others to add to my collection. Alternatively, as use for ambient music running in the background, the climbing up and down is still a distraction to me. Add some more chords maybe. The music on this CD is similar to beginner and intermediate finger warm-up exercises for keyboarding, basically consisting of climbing up the musical scale and back down again.
The product and Steve Halpern are phenomenal. The actual CD that I received was "new" yet it skips and the last part of the soundtrack does not play because of the skipping.
I use this CD while I am giving massages- I really love it. It has a great tempo, not too loud, and have had several clients comment on liking it as well.
I would recommend his works to anyone, who wants melodic background and healing tones when in the state of relaxation and/or meditation. Over the years it became worn and eventually lost. Halpern has offered all these years. I am very pleased to say that this duplication of same is still of the high calibur Mr. I had this particular recording when it was originally intitled Spectrum Suite on cassette.
I didnt like this one to much. bad if you want to meditate with it. it was so computer synthasised and it screamed new age. good if you like new age music. I cant listen to this and meditate in peace. I chucked this one in the bin. the pitches are to high and it desturbed my mind rather than being in the background.
