Greater Mysteries is an immersive music project created by composer and artist Kelli Scarr. Drawing inspiration from archetypal descent myths and ancient MYstery rites, this body of work leads listeners through a journey of descent, transformation, and return.

Woven from a deep reverence for the sacred cycles of nature, the music blends live instrumentation, voice, and improvisation into a sonic ritual—part concert, part ceremony. It began during an artist residency in Crete, with early recordings shaped by the otherworldly beauty of Iceland, and has continued to evolve through creative collaboration and communal ritual in the Hudson river Valley.

Created entirely outside the traditional music industry, Greater Mysteries is guided by intuition, experimentation, and the belief that music can be a sacred offering. It is sustained by a growing community drawn to its vision of beauty, mystery, and meaningful exchange.

We are building something different here—a living myth for our time.

We are honored to bring this work to resonant spaces that echo the mythic themes at the heart of the project. These are not traditional concerts, but living rites of passage - spaces where the boundary between artist and audience dissolves, and music becomes a vessel for personal and communal transformation.

At its core, Greater Mysteries is about connection: to story, to land, to spirit, and one another. In a time of deep cultural change, it offers an opportunity to gather, to listen, and to remember what it means to be human - together.
