August update

I have revised and updated How to Read Learning How Land Speaks and added hyperlinks throughout the posts to create the rich interconnections I am aiming at. Learning How Land Speaks is added to the navigation bar on the home page for convenience.

Learning How Land Speaks will now pause weekly posts for the rest of August. The next posting can be expected on September 6.

Meanwhile, subscribers might be interested in the four new recordings of Songs of Earth on my personal website

Lost Words Blessing is my cover of the beautiful song Spell Songs - Karine Polwart, Julie Fowlis, Seckou Keita, Kris Drever, Rachel Newton, Beth Porter and Jim Molyneux - inspired in part by The Lost Words by Robert MacFarlane and Jackie Morris. The original version is on YouTube

Gods and Goddesses is an arrangement of a villanelle by poet Ama Bolton

Suzanne/River Song borrows the tune and first verse from Leonard Cohen's Suzanne. My River Song variant tells of my experiences in panpsychic inquiry with River over the past four years, see Learning How Land Speaks

The Unbroken is based on a poem by Rashani Rea. Helen Chadwick originally arranged this for male voice and female chorus, which I have used as a basis for this arrangement for voice and guitar.
