Gabrielle Roth e il suo ensemble elettro-acustico, The Mirrors, eseguono musica cerimoniale. Roth (che vive a New York) si vanta di essere una sciamana che guarisce attraverso la trance estatica delle loro musiche fortemente percussive.
In realtà Path Of A Shaman e Dancing Toward The One fecero sensazione per il loro rock and roll tribale. Fu soltanto a partire da Totem che si fece largo una versione per meditazione delle stesse premesse filosofiche. Ferme restando le percussioni ossessive (percussioni molto insolite), Roth imparò a far leva su melodie ipnotiche per suggestionare il suo pubblico di yuppie bisognosi di relax. L'Eternal Dance e il Ritual divennero la forma espressiva di un nuovo genere di new age, così come il rondò e l'adagio lo furono del barocco.
Initiation (che favorisce il passaggio dall'inerzia all'estasi in cinque cicli) e soprattutto Bones (ciascun brano del quale è dedicato allo spirito di un animale e il primo in cui la musica diventa un fine e non soltanto un mezzo, grazie anche agli arrangiamenti di violoncello, violino, flauto e sintetizzatore) continuarono a perfezionare quella tecnica.

Gabrielle Roth was one of Esalen’s most popular and enduring workshop leaders. As a young dancer in her twenties, she arrived at Esalen in the mid-Sixties and within a short time was invited by Fritz Perls to teach movement to his Gestalt Therapy groups, and soon after began running the Esalen massage program.
Gabrielle had spent the previous ten years of her life teaching movement to children, elders, people-at-risk, and the disabled, and used her time at Esalen to further hone and develop what would eventually evolve into the worldwide 5Rhythms™ movement practice.
She would eventually migrate to the East coast, where she founded The Moving Center Inc., the vision and vehicle of her body of work. Over the years, Gabrielle’s unique perspective and passion stretched from the dance floor to the pages of three best-selling books: Maps To Ecstasy, Sweat Your Prayers, and Connections.
Based in New York City, Gabrielle also created a vibrant body of experimental theater wo

At a dinner gathering once, I seated my childhood friend Perry next to my mentor-in-chief, Gabrielle Roth, whom he had never met. Gabrielle’s husband, Robert Ansell, was sitting at the end of the table. Perry later told me that he had been very uncomfortable talking to Gabrielle, because, "She was looking at me in a way that only lovers have looked at me, and her husband was sitting right there.”
“Oh,” I responded, “that’s how she looks at everyone.”
It was true. Gabrielle had a razor-sharp, penetrating vision of each person she encountered, and saw everyone as a lover, a soul, a magical spirit; an artist, a dancer, a poet; an innocent child and a person of great hidden power and mystery. She had a natural ability to pierce through false veneers of personality, social formalities and layers of self-protection and fear, straight through to the heart of people; to the heart of me.
The very moment I looked into Gabrielle’s eyes in January at the East-West Center in Greenwich Village, New York, I experienced a deep and profound recognition within me that there was nowhere to hide, and no need to hide. The extremely private “me” that I generall
