Mystic Traveller was created from the musical score to the award-winning documentary television series Mystic Lands. The series, created by Chip Duncan, explores the world's most sacred places from India to Peru to Bali to Greece. Emmy Award winning composer Chris Spheeris, along with Robert Cory, has created an uninterrupted hour of exotic soundscape evoking culture and ritual as it unravels a global and mystical journey of the human spirit.
"Incredible CD. Really. If you want to take an international journey without artificial assistance (except your sound system), this album provides the trip. I was given this album several years ago by someone who doesn't like "new age" music. Yet, I would not classify this work in that category. I have only listened to the soundbites, provided by Amazon, to compare this album with Chris' other works. It is not the same. This is one of the best albums I own. When I am upset, cannot sleep or just need to change the subject in my head's jibberish--it's the only thing that works for me. Thanks Chris."
A treasure for the travel addict

"As a travel writer, I've been enchanted by the music and spiritual ambience of places outside our normal range of experience in the US. This CD brings back all the mystery of the world's most enigmatic sites, from Kathmandu to Cairo, Spitsbergen to Patagonia, Hanoi to Nuku'alofa, and Jaisalmer to Moorea. It's a treasure."
A calming and hypnotic journey

"This release from Chris Spheeris is one of the best. It is a spiritual journey around the world using many traditional instruments, chants, song & prayer blended with Chris's original rhythms. I find it not only relaxing, but very hypnotic, its rhythms touch the soul."
Amazing CD

"This CD is awesome! What a mystical experience. Perfect for relaxing to, reading to, doing Tarot to, doing ritual to, or just meditating to! It's going to be hard to find a CD that tops this one."
A mystical experience!

"This cd ranks very highly as one of Chris' best works to date and receives my highest recommendation! The sounds, both vocal and instrumental, are soothing to the mind as well as the soul. Images of ancient temples will come to mind as you sit back and 'feel' the music."
