“Orenda is both a Huron and Anaphorian word meaning that kind of power that mortals can summon to combat the blind forces of fate.
“While not a composition from Anaphoria, it is one that is informed by the ambient philosophy that blossoms out of the words and sounds of those people.
“The piece starts at an extremely low volume and listeners might be warned not to increase the level on their sound-producing device.”
Limited Edition of 200 in Two Covers of 100 each
