Description

Creation Flight is a personal journey of discovery -- both the discovery of Anita's ancestral roots through her mother's mother, and the discovery of her connection to all women through the ancient mother goddesses.

The 20-page, full-color tray booklet contains complete lyrics and gorgeous photos of Kruse in natural settings.

All songs were written as gifts for women in her life -- some were inspired by dreams and others evolved after great losses -- the losses of friends' children and in her mother's case -- the loss of her mother in childhood.

"Creation Flight" is a celebration of new life, especially new life that emerges from the darkness of death. It is a celebration of those things that are eternal -- love and spirit, and is an honoring of all that grows in the dark and all that is born into light.

Testimonials
"... Anita Kruse is that rare combination of visionary artist and powerful, inspired performer. She writes songs from her heart, telling stories sure to resonate with many. ...The songs are filled with hope, grief, joy, wonder, sadness, and, more than anything, celebration.

"The piano-based melodies have infectious pop hooks and mid-tempo rhythms. ... "Creation Flight" is a wonderful gift for that special someone, beginning with yourself.

"Creation Flight is a treasure for the heart."

-New Age Retailer magazine
