Terry Oldfield
is an internationally acclaimed composer and musician. Terry
is English born but now resides in Australia. He began
playing the flute on the Island of Hydra in Greece in 1970.
The call of the ocean and the tinkering sounds of goat bells
on his simple island home inspired him greatly. At this time
he also began to practice meditation and contemplation on
the mysteries of the realms of sound. Terry spent seven
years in this way. During this time Terry travelled
extensively throughout India. The mystical magic of India
with its colours and music has always been a strong
influence on his career and has flavoured his music.
From here he
moved into composing music for television in England,
America and Europe. He also began a career as a recording
artist with over 30 CD’s released and three million sales
world wide.
Terry is a
deeply spiritually inspired flautist and has focused in the
past on his silver flutes including the concert and Alto.
Recently he has become inspired to play the Bansuri Flute.
The Bansuri is the traditional Indian flute made of simple
bamboo. Various sizes of these flutes give different tones
and notes. His latest albums Yoga Harmony and Reiki Harmony
and Labyrinth are composed around the Bansuri.
Recently in
Australia Terry has begun working live with people, leading
sound journey meditations and giving flute concerts. He has
teamed up with Soraya Devashakti Saraswati who is a
spiritual teacher and healer. Together they have been
running Resonance Soundshops and live concerts in Australia
and are now touring overseas.
Terry is a Reiki
master and works with energetic healing. Terry and Soraya
run regular Kirtan healing music and chant evenings in their
home on the Sunshine Coast Australia. |
