Magical Melodies

Gentle Thunder mesmerized, moved, and inspired the large group that came together at the Alaska Center for Spiritual Living, on May 17th, to spend an evening of music with her. She playfully and powerfully wove together her beautiful Native American Flutes, Hammer Dulcimer and moving stories, touching and awakening hearts. She says “Each of us has a unique gift to bring to the world” and thanks everyone for simply showing up to be exactly who they are in these difficult but important times.

Musicians from the centers music department were invited to play piano and drums, and to sing with her. She also invited two local flute players to play an impromptu piece, and another couple played an Irish Jig medley on the Hammer Dulcimer and guitar. All of which was fun and deeply moving for the musicians as well as the audience.
The music was beautiful, the messages profound!
