Sophia is an ordained Buddhist chanter who created her first album, Chakra Healing Chants, in 2016. This follow-up CD, Spirit Healing Chants, features a more evocative style of music and chanting with choral backing and soft instrumental textures.
A calming blend of acoustic and electronic instruments, the sounds of Sophia’s chanting are intertwined with angelic synths, soft piano, guitar, strings, flute and percussion. Her soft vocals are enhanced by reverb and ambient music, which creates an immersive experience.
