When a Celtic Reiki album was suggested it seemed like a perfect plan to mix Llewellyn Reiki music experience with CCs Celtic music experience. The two had worked together on CCs album Ayurveda album, which Llewellyn produced, and Llewellyn's Mysts of Avalon and Llewellyn & Juliana's Earth Angel album.

Consulting with Celtic reiki practitioner Bev Lewis - who wrote the line notes to the album - it was decided to divide the album into 4 quarters, reflecting the elements. Llewellyn suggested some broad instrumentation that would accompany each element and CC laid the main plan of the music down. Llewellyn & Juliana added their music and subtle ambiences to this.

Dance of the Flame - FIRE

This is a very atmospheric album with the marriage of Celtic and ambient relaxation music being very special with all three special talents coming to the fore..

This album can also be used for Usui Reiki Healing treatments and a wide range of therapies including massage, aromatherapy, meditation and yoga. Contains detailed sleeve notes about Celtic Reiki.

Celtic Reiki is a beautiful style of Reiki which uses vibrations from the Earth and certain types of trees and plants to create energies ideal for healing.

1. Magical Earth - EARTH
The magical feel of this track is imparted immediately by the combination of zither, sounding like a Celtic harp, and kalimba (thumb piano). Irish tim whistles and Juliana's vocals also make for a magical feel.

2. Dance of the Flame - FIRE
The fire is represented by the low drone of the bass keys of the piano and the Irish low whistle. Llewellyn added some distant thunderstorm sounds and again Chris's and Juliana's gentle voices blend together beautifully, dancing around the flame.

3. Sea of Dreams - WATER
A swirling ocean of sounds as filtered theremin and voices lay the seabed over which Irish tin whistle floats. A really dreamy track.

4. The Wind of Enlightenment - AIR
Bamboo flute floats over wind ambiences before being joined by a rippling acoustic 9 string guitar and Llewellyn's delicate piano on this piece which builds to a really emotional and anthemic feel by the end. Irish whistles play in harmony with eachother and the gentle voices float away into the distance.

Produced by Chris Conway & Llewellyn
