I Am Of The Minerals – (Pagan chant, short, harmonies)

A lovely song written by Tony Wrench, in 7/8 really enjoyable to sing. A short version with only a few extra harmonies, but still a lovely song.

When I was studying music at Edinburgh University, I sang a collection of Pagan songs with some friends on a Sunday night for a while, it was in a cosy little cottage in Roslin, with a fire burning and we all brought a dish to eat, we created some amazing vibes. Moving from singing to percussion and drumming and back again, seamlessly. It was an education in a type of music making that didn’t feature in the academic course.. I was so grateful for these experiences as they widened my knowledge and scope of singing style and improvisation.

The songs we sang were from “Prana Chants” a songbook compiled by Tony Wrench. Tony wrote “I am of the Minerals”.
