Search - Johann Sebastian Bach, Antonio Vivaldi, Arcangelo Corelli :: Classical Music For Contemplation

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) Fine Music presenter Jaroslav Kovaricek, Ph.D., compiled the selection of classical music from the Adagio (Complete Edition) series. Jaroslav designed the compilation, of nearly eighty minutes duration, into three parts, to be used for specific purposes.Firstly, the album can be used as a personalized sonic environment. The beauty of this music can certainly enhance our feelings of well-being and take us away from the many unpleasant sounds in our immediate surroundings.The second way of using this selection is to listen to it for its musical quality, to hear it purely as musical sounds, to hear every note and its dynamic and timbral quality. This process helps to build better awareness and mindfulness, to develop better sensitivity of our inner ear and improve our intuitive abilities.The third mode of listening can be in the practice of personal contemplation, even meditation. Once we discover the hidden mysteries of great music, we open our inner ear and the music is ready to help us on our spiritual journey.The first section, Baroque Movements, featuring beautiful and moving music, is designed for pleasant relaxation. The second section, Slow Motion Emotion, is more personal and can be used for meditating on a wide range of subjective themes. The third section, Soaring Spiritually, can assist our minds in acquiring a better understanding of ourselves and the world.
