Reclaiming Second Chants - This versatile recording, produced in 1994, has many wonderful new chants and songs from Reclaiming's classes, summer intensives, and rituals. Arranged with teaching in mind, yet musically varied with a host of instruments. Strong production values make this album a consistent best seller. All lyrics included.

Reclaiming Let It Begin now: Music from the Spiral Dance - In 1979, our community held the first public Spiral Dance ritual, to celebrate Samhain (Halloween), and the publication of Starhawk's book The Spiral Dance. Since then, the Spiral Dance ritual has been changed and added to, most profoundly by the inclusion of much beautiful, original music. These 11 songs and chants from Reclaiming's Spiral Dance ritual are played in a variety of musical styles, from a capella to full choral arrangements with complex instrumentals. A ritual in itself, this 1992 recording captures as much of the magic of our yearly ritual extravaganza as would fit in the studio! Click here for more info or to order this CD.
