For Soprano Oboe Clarinet Violin Cello and Piano.'A mantra is a means of meditation a word or phrase or even a single sound repeated over and over again for the purpose of spiritual centering. The repetition of a mantra is said to bring about personal transformation as the words move from a mere outward mechanical repetition to a true inward resonation within the speaker. The mantra is believed to elevate the soul to bring out a higher deeper level of peace and understanding.' — Rachel Barber
