All compositions by Whit Dickey.

"Being a drummer, Whit Dickey uses generally the piano when he composes. The pieces included in "Sacred Ground" are exceptions-this time, he chose the voice as compositional tool. This is not new, of course. Max Roach is the most famous case of a percussionist who wanted to play melodically, but if you're a newcomer to his music you'll get to know him at his best. Everybody wins." (taken from the liner notes)
