MUSIC FROM THE PINK DOLPHINS
To celebrate the THE YEAR OF THE FOREST, the Laurel Canyon Animal Company is offering Music From the Pink Dolphins - a captivating CD that brings attention to the innate spirituality of man, the endangered Pink Dolphins of the Amazon River and the destruction of the Rainforest to help publicize and fund reforestation projects in the dolphin's habitat - where 80% of the oxygen on Earth is generated. The recording has the dual purpose of helping to bring attention to a critical part of the world that needs our help and to create music based on that ecosystem and of the peoples that inhabit the rain forest.
Music From the Pink Dolphins is a musical journey up the Amazon that took us over a year to develop and is based on the book, Journey of the Pink Dolphins by award winning author Sy Montgomery, who acted as a consultant during the CD's creation. Roxanne Kremer - an internationally recognized expert on the pink dolphin, conservationist and the founder of the International Society For The Preservation of the Tropical Rain Forest also acted as a consultant along with conservationist and pink dolphin expert Vera da Silva, head of the aquatic mammals laboratory at the Institute Nacional de Pesquias da Amazonia in Manaus.
Music From the Pink Dolphins contains 10 songs inspired by the animals, people, plants and legends of the Amazon. Donna DeLory and Lisbeth Scott are the primary vocalists and native instruments imported from the Amazon were used to help create the unique and dreamily beautiful recordings.
In accordance with our policy of employing animal communicators for some of our projects we utilized the services of Penelope Smith, the foremost cetacean communicator in the world to contact the pink dolphins for their input which was also used in creating the Music From The Pink Dolphins
Vera da Silva provided one of the only sound recordings of a wild pink dolphin in existence, which became an integral element of the music. When you listen the beautiful sounds produced by these dolphins of the Amazon, you will be listening to the ancient language of the whales - sound that haven't changed in millions of years.
You will hear the sounds of the Amazon throughout the recordings, the dolphins, birds, rain dropping to the upper canvas and into the river below. The tribal rhythms of nature and man are intermingled to make it a singular musical heartbeat from the earth that is both enchanting and extremely relaxing. A welcome anitdote to today's tribulations.
The Laurel Canyon Animal Company would like to make the endangered Pink Dolphin a symbol of reforestation of the Amazon and environmental stewardship of forest and animals by its native peoples - and the rest of the world.
