Dante’s Prayer…

I love the song Dante’s Prayer by Loreena McKennitt. She wrote it in 1995 while traveling alone by train across Siberia. She later recorded it in Peter Gabriel’s studio in England for her album Book of Secrets.

Tonight, I was drawn to the piano to create my own interpretation. I recorded it in about an hour. The final version was a single take, so this is a bit raw with just my piano & voice. I like the end result, though, and I hope you enjoy it! Click on the image to the left or here to listen to the Dante’s Prayer mp3.

“Cast your eyes on the ocean… Cast your soul to the sea. When the dark night seems endless… Please remember me.”

Happy to be singing & creating music again,
