Music as the Maternal Instinct. A mother doesn't lullaby to get love – but to give.

Dr. Diamond has composed a large number of special therapeutic songs which he calls lilts. Like his original artwork and photography, his lilts are created with the specific intention of raising the Life Energy of the performer and his audience.
