ABOUT EMIL GAGLIARDI:

Emil Gagliardi founded Connecting the Universe Music in 2000. He is the composer, guitarist and creator of the DETACHING THE WORLD CD series. Born and raised on the coast of Maine, Gagliardi has been actively engaged with sound and music since the age of five. He studied music at the University of Maine. Honing his knowledge of tone and instrumental harmony is one of his lifelong missions, and he has embraced a wide array of musical genres while broadening his exploration of both acoustic and electric guitars.

According to Gagliardi, “Living on an island that is blanketed with snow in the winter and wildflowers in the summer keeps me attuned to nature, light and the seasons. Being here in such a wild and sublime coastal zone feeds my creative process. I try to craft an intricate, meditative sound with my guitars, inspired by a vision of light, love and connection to the universe.”  

Emil’s musical explorations in the relaxation and ambient music genre have been enriched by his collaboration with licensed massage therapist Melanie Schreiber. Ms. Schreiber uses the DETACHING THE WORLD CD series in her healing practice. In addition to sharing the music with her clients, she also serves as creative muse and musical advisor for Connecting the Universe Music.

This soothing, ambient guitar music is specifically designed for massage: Never fluctuates, no accelerated tempos to break the massage rhythm.

SERENE AMBIENT GUITAR TO HELP AID A STRESSFUL MIND
Lately I've been submerging myself in yoga, morning meditation, T'ai Chi, and massage therapy to help my mind, body and spirit cope with the loss of a loved one. My sister (who raves about this artist) gave me this cd on my birthday in hopes that it would aid through the grieving process and help me relax.

Soon after my birthday, I finally had an afternoon to do nothing but try and unwind. I took my portable cd player outside with this cd and lied in my hammock. A few minutes after hitting play, I closed my eyes and had the most intense visualizations. It was as if each note from this music embraced my soul and projected a movie of warmth and comfort in my eyelids.

A few hours went by as I lay in my hammock listening to this cd repeat over and over. The calming effects of this music, combined with the hammock, had relaxed me beyond words. It was as if the stress detached my world (no pun intended).

As I look through the liner notes, I notice that this entire cd was created with guitars. Never in my life have I heard guitar sound so angelic and peaceful. All of this cd is great, yet the piece of music that comforts my heart the most is Pulse. Pulse has a calm heartbeat sound with this airy guitar melody that dances gently through the notes. Absoulutly beautiful!

I am bringing this cd to my next massage appointment in hopes that my therapist too will feel the heavenly ambiance that this music provides.

MY CLIENT'S FAVORITE PICK FOR BODYWORK!
Just got volume 2. Delicious! What an encore. Nicely divergent from Volume 1. It seems to be more 'grounded' than the prior work but still retaining the flavors of space. You can tell this artist respects the delicate atmosphere needed for massage. This cd is successful with a client who is beyond picky with his musical choices during our sessions. Muchas gracias!

THE MOST CREATIVE MUSICAL JOURNEY
Having had so many incredible experiences listening and working with Detaching The World Vol. 1, I purchased Vol. 2 without hesitation. Although different from the first CD, the musicians style of meditative guitar transforms me and resonates with me similar to Vol. 1. It seems as if the music puts me in a trance sending me to another place - a place where everything is calm and nothing can go wrong. My thoughts disappear and I capture the importance of being in every moment. This CD is mellow enough for deep relaxation yet also great music to play in the car on a long road trip. Either way it is definitely a journey that everyone should experience. I also find it important to listen from beginning to end without stopping - each track almost leads you to the next. It's as if a story is formed in track 1 that sends you wanting to know more in track 2. This continues until the "grand finale" which is a "heartbeat"-like song - sending you immediately inward on your own journey. This is a beautiful CD.
