More Info:

A Higher Dimension was recorded January 29th, 1988, and was the first album where I could say as a musician and creator of music for meditation, "If I die tomorrow I can go happily, knowing that I've done this recording." I had been in an intensive spiritual process for the previous four and a half years, studying with Hilda Charlton and several of her students, and had been learning to express the spiritual journey through music. So when the opportunity came to record, I did bring some prepared music, but mostly I brought my willingness to listen and perform the music of inspiration which I heard inwardly. I wanted to express the principles I had been learning spiritually. I also wanted to express the realms of grace I had touched in my spiritual journey. As the recording progressed, divine qualities would occur to me and with them a musical piece would begin "in my head." I then played on the piano what I was hearing inside. Putting the album together was fairly easy as the qualities which became the titles of the pieces and the music had their own logic and progression. Here are the liner notes from the original cassette-only release of this album: Recorded January 29, 1988 at Classic Sound, N.Y.C, on an 1896 Steinway B grand piano using one (1) AKG C422 stereo microphone and two (2) Neumann U87 microphones and a Sony PCM F-1 digital recorder.
