Music My Music on iTunes
My compositions have been featured on numerous products and projects. Recently, I completed work on "Touch the Earth" a multimedia project for NASA. I also composed and performed all of the music for the Missions and Meditations CDs for my book, "Life Elements."
My original music is an earth-centered fusion of jazz, classical, folk, African, Eastern European and Middle-Eastern influences. I believe in the transformative and magical power of music, and I strive to bring that across in both my lyrics and melodies. It is my sincere hope that everyone who comes to this site leaves with a renewed sense of the magic and mystery of music and song.
As an educator, I perform and teach about music from all over the world. Together, my audiences and I explore and appreciate the myriad genres of music through the ages and from all over the world.
Folknouveau.com: The website of my original music.
- "All the relevant influences are there from Ireland to Appalachia and the famed concert halls of Europe. If you like Loreena McKennitt under the New Moon then this will hit you where it counts." -Laurin Wollan, Music Monthly
Songs and Music: My site of song samples of traditional and world music from many different cultures.
IzoldaMusic.com: My musical compositions for movies and other projects.
