About James

James D'AngeloJames D’Angelo has had a multi-faceted career in music as a lecturer (City University of New York), classical/jazz pianist, organist, composer, workshop leader and writer on therapeutic sound and metaphysical subjects. James holds degrees from the Manhattan School of Music and a PhD from New York University. In 1984 he emigrated from New York to London, England and eventually took up a teaching position at Goldsmiths College.

James is a published and prize-winning composer with many works to his credit. They have been performed in New York, London, Milan, Helsinski and on BBC Television. His music is in the repertory of the Gloucester Cathedral choir.

Since 1994 James has developed and evolved courses that focus on the theory and practice of therapeutic sound primarily through the voice using toning and chanting but also through the application of tuning forks.

“The voice is a light. If the light becomes dim, it has not gone out; it is there. It is the same with the voice. If it does not shine, it only means that it has been cultivated and you must cultivate it again and it will shine once more.”

Hazrat Inayat Khan
