Night after night, in ashrams and temples, cavernous cathedrals and modest community theaters around the world, Krishna Das sits down behind his harmonium, flanked by his band of supporting musicians, greets the crowd that has gathered to sing, closes his eyes, and begins. And with his opening Om, everyone in the room sets off together on a priceless evening’s journey along the path of devotion.
Heart Full of Soul is a double-CD recording which captures the joy and fervor that one would encounter while attending a Krishna Das performance, featuring two discs of uplifting chant set against acoustic instrumentation. As with much of his past work, Krishna Das' ultimate goal is to make chant music accessible to those outside kirtan circles. To that end, the album does a wonderful job of showing the intoxicating nature this music can have.
