Wow, Beautiful! and what a great job by Steve Dawson.

Two years ago, while on a pilgrimage to Spain and Rome, I was in the medieval walled town of Avila, home to the great Carmelite mover-and-shaker-and-mystic, Saint Teresa. In Rome, I was thrilled to be able to see the famous Bernini statue entitled Saint Teresa in Ecstasy (see photo). After returning home to Chicago, I wrote this song about Teresa's ecstatic/mystical moments and what it might have felt like to experience them in the human skin of a woman and as a spiritual being. This recording features arrangement/instrumentation by Steve Dawson. The final mixed recording will be on my next album, "The Pilgrim" (http://KathyGreenholdt.com).

Inspired by Roethke's villanelle "The Waking", this versatile playlist attempts to capture the beauty in contradictions. Although stylistically different, each track originated from the idea that songs should be written statements that connect other to your emotions and not just to rhyme. The common thread being the concept that contrary what other believe, our feelings should drive our decision-making in life. Intended to keep the listener intrigued from the first track until the end of the playlist, WTBF was created for the thinker with conviction.
