Singing with Ernestine and Friends
Visitors to Louhelen have enjoyed learning and singing inspiring music with numerous talented artists. Among them was Ernestine Atkins, who composed many songs using words from the Bahá’í writings. In Ernestine's words: "These recordings aren't professional productions. We just want to show this is one type of music that people can use in their own communities." Joined by Kay Yoder, Karen McCord, Sharon McCord, Ruhiyyih Yuille, and choirs composed of Louhelen's guests, a number of these songs have been recorded just for that purpose.
Containing 33 songs, this double CD is specially priced at $15.00. Proceeds from the sale of these CDs help support more projects of this nature.
Ocean of Light –Ecoutes la Voix
A wonderful collection of joyous and reflective songs inspired by the Bahá’í writings in French and English. This talented family of musicians will warm your heart with their beautiful melodies and rich harmonies.
