Samhuin by Phil Thornton A keen sorcerer of sonic visions, Phil Thornton has written and produced over 30 solo albums - with world wide sales of over 2 million - since beginning his musical odyssey in the early '80s with the group 'Expandis' (a unique artists collective best known for their innovative use of electronic sound). Phil's first two ambient albums 'Cloud Sculpting' and 'Edge Of Dreams' both topped the 'New Musical Express' New Age chart and are now widely acclaimed as classics of their genre. One of his amazing signature albums, Solstice, is featured in this show which opens with the evocative sounds of the powerful piece Samhuin. We hear his gentle track, While the Green Man Sleeps, accompanying the poem later on. You can find Phil's music on iTunes, or from his website. You can find out more details about Phil and Expandis on his Contributor page or on this website. 2. The Dreaming by Damh the Bard This song, The Dreaming, is a powerful and personal tale of his relationship to the land of his birth, Albion, and the new land of his heart, Australia. It tells us of the magic of the land and the people in the way that only Damh the Bard can sing a tale alive with his music. You can find his music on iTunes, or from his website, Pagan Music. He is also the voice behind Druidcast, the official podcast of the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids (OBOD, for short) - modern day Druids. You can find Druidcast here and find out more about OBOD here. You can find out more details about Damh on his Contributor page on this website. 3. Summer's Farewell Medley by Spiral Dance We are privileged to bring you their glorious medley, Summer's Farewell / Bo Mhin Na Toitean / Idbury Hill from their latest, superb double album, Through A Sylvan Doorway. You can find out more about Spiral Dance on their website or on our Contributor Page. 4. Kan An Awen ('The Song of Awen') by Dom Duff We are very proud to bring you his Kan An Awen (Song of Awen) in this show. The song comes from his album Roc'h and is his tribute to the Awen, or the Muse, that inspires us all. Below are his lyrics in Breizh (the Breton language) as well as his English translation. Kan An Awen Daoust ha klevet 'peus bet anv, Deus Kan an Awen ? A c'hwezhe warnomp e miz Even A c'hwezhe da groc'hen. Awen ro dimp skrijadenn vras C'hoant karantez, c'hwezh, al liv, ar blaz Gwad a sav er gwez, nerzh an amzer Taolomp hor pouez dindan ar sioulder.

Muse, give us the great thrill, the desire
