Description
The Rhythm Divine brings you music with a spiritual impulse; it represents a crossroads where faith meets music, where you might hear the sounds of the Sufis or a Bach cantata, Gregorian chant or Johnny Cash. Feel the rhythm of the world's religious traditions, the new spiritual practices and the fusion of religion and pop culture.
