This musical meditation is a creative response to the writings of Dennis William
Hauck which have impacted my life in ways I have not yet fully realized. My
inspired thoughts guided this effort, but the music was born in the mystery of
the sacred marriage of the Sun and Moon within me. Their chaotic, unfathomable
union caused the heavens to darken during my recording and then burst forth in a
long, violent thunderstorm, which I also recorded. As Below, so Above. – John
Schaffenberger. (Lyrics by Neil Bethell Sinclair; cover art by Rebecca Chaperon.)
