There are seven of us. Seven melodies, seven songs about the world. The number seven represents perfection, wholeness, holiness and cosmic order. In many cultures, it has been considered as a mystical symbol, connecting heaven and earth, signifying the cycle of creation, time and spiritual depth. In numerology, the number seven symbolizes the search for truth, intuition and indicates the sage who seeks deeper meaning and truth.

We carry within us the memory of the stars, the constellations of the sky. We carry human stories, which, like nature, are flowing rivers, blowing winds, erupting volcanoes and burning fires. We continue to wander the same Earth together, singing chants in which the alchemy of the elements intertwines with what is simple and everyday – the Path of each of us.

Life has brought us to a place where we are celebrating our new album, “Septem” — from the Latin word for “seven”. Latin, as an ancient language — much like chants — evokes echoes of ancient tales and universal stories that connect us on many levels.

This album is the fruit of our over ten-year journey together. A journey — a path, in which each of us contributes her unique gift to the whole of the Song that We Are.
