The beautiful spiritual album, "Mantra" by Margot Reisinger with Existence, is a compilation of multi-religious prayers or mantras put into musical form. The detail that is put into the articulation of the Hebrew, Arabic, Latin, and Sanskrit words makes the listener feel as though they are with the native speaker. The music is ambient and reflects the cultural melodies from which each of the prayers are drawn which keeps the listener on a calming and relaxed level while still varying in tone due to the use of different instruments on each track. "Shiva Shankara" is a wide, echoing track that praises the Hindu God Shiva who dwells high in the peaks of the Himalayas. As the track progresses and the vocal range expands, it's as if the listener is being carried up to meet the divine Shiva himself. "Jesu Domine" is from a Latin hymn dedicated to Christianity and offers sweet and delicate choir like voices complemented by soft and gentle percussion. The spiritual world music of "Mantra" will uplift your body and soul and is an album well worth listening to.
