Our first ever Eastern Canadian Songs of this Soul tour has just wrapped up and it was a lovely success. Audiences in Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto and Winnipeg got the opportunity to listen to the soothing and uplifting melodies composed by Sri Chinmoy as arranged by 6 different music groups. In each case we played in university theatres to audiences ranging from 200 to 400 people. As is customary for this concert series, the audience was asked to hold their applause until the very end of the concert so that we could create a meditative atmosphere for the duration. Thank you to all the volunteers who helped make this possible as well as the musicians who travelled from far and wide to make this offering to Canada. And of course, thank you to all the audience members who came out to share an evening of peace. Please visit www.songsofthesoul.com for photos of past concerts and info about upcoming events. You are also welcome to leave comments on the same website. These are some of the comments received on our feedback cards on the night of the concert:
