The music of Raphael

is rooted in healing intention and created with love.


“Raphael Groten’s music is an exercise in grace and ease. His music beguiles. He creates spaces into which one falls fully and gratefully. Raphael paints pictures of peace and contemplation and creates musical worlds that one longs to visit.”

– Will Ackerman

Latest release... an album of solo flute: Great Blue

Great Blue

On August 12th, 2022, my friend Krishna brought his studio into my living room in Bristol, Vermont. 8 hours and 12 flutes later, we had captured over 170 minutes of what I experienced as channeled flute songs. I then chose the sweetest parts and distilled them into this album.


After grounding, centering and setting my intention to record healing music, I began with the first flute that called to me, continuing throughout the day, as they took turns speaking through me. Each flute brought forward a unique song, while weaving themes and melodies throughout. None of these songs were pre-conceived, and each flute surprised me with what they had to say. The track order reveals the order in which the flutes were played, staying true to the flow of the recording process.


These flute songs are, for me, a meditation and a portal to visionary worlds. May they carry you to your own inner sanctuaries and bring peace and quiet to your being. 


Love and blessings to all,

Raphael
