This soundtrack accompanies AYURVEDA: ART OF BEING, a documentary about the ancient Indian system of natural healthcare. Composer Cyril Morin blends Eastern melodies, traditional vocals, and instruments with modern rhythms and keyboards in a broad palette that reflects the balance and richness of the Ayurvedan elements: Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Space. At times the effects are stunningly simple as in the flute dialogue in "Vatta - Air and Ether" and, in others, a layered tapestry of dynamic elements, such as in the deeply enchanting symphony of "Five Elements." minimize
