Relying heavily on Indian praise chants (bhajans) for her vocal framework, newcomer Pia has crafted a thing of delicate and enduring loveliness in her debut album. Her voice is arrestingly clear and pure; it cuts through the musical underpinnings like a crystal flute. Most of the time, this is accomplished through hushed, breathy intonations matching the feel of the gently lapping waves of the sonic environment, although during more impassioned sections, Pia unleashed the usually restrained power of her instrument.
Both aspects of this range are explored on my favourite cut, “Angelus Cantus”. The overall feeling on the track (and, indeed, the album) is one of reverence and awe, and we are vocally led to fervent heights of spiritual ecstasy as Pia Morphs from Loreena McKennitt into Cyndi Lauper. I always feel so peaceful and humble after treating myself to this album, and this song in particular. Because I think you will, too, I offer it as the The New Times album of the month.
“Open your heart”, Pia exhorts in the introduction to the closing track, “Feel Free”. By the time we have listened to the preceding songs, though, the music has already facilitated this process to the point that there is not far to go. As the song gathers urgency and speed, we are reminded of responsibility to carry the fruits of our inward journey into the world, fulfilling its promise of harmony and joy.

| Benediction Moon |
Pia,s voice is the most beautiful I ever heard, like an angel. I have all 3 of her albums but this is the best. The music compliments her perfectly. I listen to her through my headphones & I go to a beautiul, mystical world - no cares or worries & come back to the real world feeling relaxed & chilled & at peace. There is no one like Pia.
Spiritual blessings be with her always. |

| My favourite album - EVER |
I can't praise Pia's album "Benediction Moon" enough. I use it when I do my holistic therapy treatments and Reiki on myself. It is truly spiritual and has reduced me to tears with its emotions. I feel a link with my late-father when I listen to "Benediction Moon".
I recommend it to everyone I meet! Congratulations Pia - and thank you for bringing me so much joy. |
