- "At the workshop the real
- magic took place when Jill
- Purce demonstrated the
- overtone chanting which was to
- become the focus of the weekend.
- This makes audible the natural spectrum
- of the voice so that flute-like harmonics
- are heard rising above the single note. It was a celestial
sound, ethereal and haunting and far more impressive than any trick of conjuring or
ventriloquism I have ever seen. More extraordinary was when we were each shown how we, too
could make such sounds. By the end of the weekend I studied the faces of the group and was
convinced by her methods; everyone looked relaxed and claimed to feel both euphoric and
calm." THE OBSERVER

 Overtone Chanting meditations - (information about other CDs and audio-cassettes)
- An unusual recording which starts with a 10 minute radio interview
with Jill Purce and some of the people who have studied with her, on the healing effects
of chanting and sound, followed by the extraordinary sounds of solo and group Mongolian
overtone chanting. This powerful and meditative tape is healing and deeply relaxing. It is
also helpful for learning this ancient shamanic vocal technique. Overtone chanting makes
audible the natural harmonic spectrum of the voice in its pure rainbow colours, so that
unearthly, angelic and bell like tones are heard floating above the deep voices of the
chanters.
-
- This tape is recommended by Dr. Deepak Chopra to
his patients and students. Of it he says:
-
- "Jill Purce’s chanting will help you
discover
- the magical and mysterious in you.
Through these chants you will encounter your sacred self
and your life will be changed forever"
