Pheo Rose

Drawing on a wonderful use of rhythms and instruments, this original music was composed to release the tensions of the mind, revitalize the inner energies, and soothe the soul; with the result of bringing the listener to both joy and deep peace thru Contemplative Listening.
Contemplative Listening is a quieting of all the voices of the ego and sensory perception until in a seeming nothingness, Presence itself fills one’s awareness. It is only in the quieting Presence that the deepest parts of the mind and soul may emerge into consciousness. And, if one strives to perceive the deepest parts of the mind and soul, the effort itself will be a block. Only with sustained comfort in the seeming focused nothingness will emergence be possible.
Awareness to the cacophony of inner voices, and integrating them into a single quietness can be practiced musically. Musical tracks unite into melodies and harmonies. Hearing each musical track, and then uniting them into simultaneous integration of one focus is wonderful practice for hearing and integrating all the inner voices into a quieted oneness. CL mode, means that the music has been composed and arranged to facilitate this practice.
All Mystic Rose Music Label albums are created in the CL Mode. To Get the Most from this Music and its CL mode, use headphones, or a quiet environment with good stereo of left and right speakers

Pheo Rose' Personal Biography:
Sometime between ages 10 and 11, and somewhere in the swirl of bologna and liverwurst that was brought into our house of poverty, came an upright piano. Once here, the old and cracked veneer was stripped off, but nothing ever replaced it. That was “home” then, people and things stripped of what they had, and not much could be given to produce new luster.
I buried my fingers into the piano keys as I unburied emotions through playing. Eight months of lessons almost completely undid any love for the piano. I announced that the only way I would keep with the instrument was “my way,” Without intention, the piano became my “sounding board”
for life’s confusion, as well as my confessor receiving all the pain and hurt and troubling thoughts. In so many ways time at the piano was my single intimate companion to whom I could reach out with the most vulnerable of feelings.
My childhood was a life of great scarcity of everything nurturing, and my twenties bore the child of this – personal agony. My intimate companion was there for me; always taking the depth of feeling, and helping me express it musically.



I added flute for those times in Nature’s Sanctuary. People who heard my music sat quietly and always seemed to comment, “Don’t Stop.” I realized then that the depth that I reached for connected with others as well. So I started paying more attention and remembering more of the “original” pieces that poured out of me.



Since 1973, I have performed solo piano, flute, and Celtic harp where its depth of feeling could most help others – weddings, church services, retreats, prayer circles, earth day events.
Since 1989, I have composed music that would express and support others in the exquisite inner journey to their soul and full self integration. The first three of these cds will be released in 2007 on my own label, Mystic Rose Music. Two more efforts will be released by 2008.
Decades of Studying and Journeying the “Way” of the mystics has merged with my music to offer the spiritual journey to full self integration using music as my primary tool.
