Book Reviews of Sacred Sounds of the Female Orishas: Rhythms of the Goddess
Book Review: One of My First Orisa Albums
Summary: 5 Stars
I originally purchased this in cassette form back in 1999 and played it until it died from exhaustion. The songs to the female Orisas are so beautiful that you can't help but dance along and praise them. Baba Canizares did an excellent job of compiling these praise songs. My personal favorite is the song to Yewa, Queen of the Underworld. It has such a haunting melody that if it's playing and someone's talking, I shush them so that I may pay it my full attention. It is a beautiful CD with which to begin your day or whenever you'd just like to be in a meditative space. Ase
Summary of Sacred Sounds of the Female Orishas: Rhythms of the Goddess
The Afro-Cuban mystery religion Santerhas always been attuned to the female aspects of the Deity. This unique offering of Santercontains praise songs to the different aspects of the Goddess in the form of Oy?Yemay?Oshún, Yewa, and Obba. Collected and presented by Raul Canizares (1955-2002), who was head of the SanterTemple Orisha Consciousness Movement in Manhattan and the author of SanterCubana and Shango: An African-American Titan, the CD presents songs, chants, and drumming that evoke the powers of these female orishas.Goddesses Books
