"Footsteps in the Sand" encapsulates creative developments born out of a deepening relationship with both the people and the natural environment of Brazil. Recorded in studios in Brazil, Austria and England and features musicians from all these countries including the renowned guitarist and producer Gandalf from Austria. "Footsteps in the Sand" evolved from the personal experiences of Emily when she was living on the North East coast of Brazil. Seeking out tradition and armed with her portable digital recorder, she travelled on local buses to isolated places and visited rural communities. She recorded both groups and individuals singing songs and chants. From these people she discovered a folk-loric world, rich in musical diversity. Integrating these recordings within a harmonic weave of classical harmonies creates music which is immediately calming.
