Meridian is a powerfully moving impression of a springtime journey along the 111th Meridian, the great circle of Earth that begins near Nogales, Arizona, passes through the sacred land of many Native Americans, the desert canyons and mesas of central Arizona, the Buttes overlooking Monument Valley, The Escalante of Southern Utah, the western slopes of the Tetons, the Gallatin National Forest and ends north of the Sweetgrass Hills in Montana. Natural environmental sounds recorded along the way are interwoven with an evocative synthesized score by Phil Aaberg and sacred music of Navajo Flautist John Rainer, Jr.
