“…it’s a stunning sounding
recording and full of feeling. I’ve
listened to it over and over and the sense it gives of the monastery life is
incredible!

Fall is such a myriad of
colors. The extraordinary beauty of
the landscape is hard to believe without seeing for yourself. This region of the Catskills is a forest
preserve and the diversity of flora is fantastic. |

The monastery itself is nestled on the hillside above the lake as
you probably have seen from previous photos.
There is a path to the top of the mountain also that will give a
tremendous view of the lake and surrounding areas. |

I
recorded Raining Fall from the porch of the gatehouse during a fall
rain taking my cues from the sounds of the wind, rain and rustling
leaves. Samu II was also
recorded outdoors as I listened to the monks unloading firewood at the back
of the monastery. |

Return to Mountain contains a companion sketch to Raining Fall entitled Autumn
Wind. |
