notes

David Darling's 8-String Religion has been praised by practitioners, philosophers and musicians alike. Hailed as the best album of the millennium by "Yoga Journal," it is considered his finest work. Layered over tracks of flowing water, Darling's cello awakens us to nature's eternal flow. It is his tribute to the beauty of our planet, and itself is a great blessing.

"In EIGHT STRING RELIGION, David Darling has concocted an elixir of skill, wisdom, love and beauty that is truly nourishment for the soul." --Ram Dass

"It just awakens the heart... the instruments rise and meet in a gentle crescendo that can bring tears to your eyes." --Yoga Journal

  • it can play on repeat on and on and on ...

    Both my partner and I love this music. I feel my heart opened and nourished and expressed by David's music. It is totally harmonic with Nature's frequency. Thank you David! I went looking for something- cello, and when I found Darling's work, I remembered knowing of him years ago through Paul Winter's Consort and the singer Susan Osborn ; both whom I love as well.

  • One of my favorites, hauntingly unsettling, startlingly mysterious
    author: Cathy Hatch

    I first heard this CD while I was receiving a Polarity Therapy treatment, a modality I know to be powerful for me. This CD helped me to reach a part of myself I had not previously been able to access. Someone walked away with my copy. I am just getting around to ordering a new copy. I guess I needed time off from the journey. Even though my ears could not hear his music, my heart carried *-string relligion and the resonance of the music continues to help my spirit to grow and change.

  • Relaxing and mind flexing music returns to the classical world.

    I am a song writer myself and I certainly appreciated this album. I bought a copy for myself and a copy for my mother for Christmas. I like his technique. In fact I would go as far as to compliment the production of the album particularly on the tracks Minor Blue and Remember. Do yourself a favor and buy this CD.

  • Very calming, centering music
    author: Terry

    I was looking for some music to listen to in the car while sitting in traffic during my afternoon commute and this is just what I needed. The gentle strings help me to get re-aligned after a hard day at work. I just love it. Thanks David!

  • Absolutely beautiful!!!
    author: Deborah Andersib

    Eight String Religion is absolutely beautiful. There is a sadness to the music with a great sense of hope,promise, and beauty. I love this CD and find "Clouds" particuliarly calming.

  • Love this music. I play it for my yoga class, massages, and in the car.!!!
    author: Margo Gal

    This CD is about the best. I love that there are no words, and it sends you into a space of oneness and peace. The last piece is light, playful and happy. So far everyone I play it for loves it. Can you, David Darling make it to Maui to do a concert? Maybe with Zuleaka? Thanks again. I look forward to getting more of your CD's. peace. Margo

    Easy listening with integrity and depth. With the sensory-rich sounds of nature, the distant, melodic storytelling of the piano and the emotional direction of the cello, this album is the epitome of Classical meeting Easy Listening meeting New Age without being watered down for the mainstream. The occasional blessing of vocals twinkles and dances off of the floating lines of thought. Melodies you can follow as they lead you into the rich textures, harmonies that ring with the buzz of life and atmospheres that take you inward, build a beautiful, moving world of color and light known as "8-String Religion."
