Strom, Pauline Anna

Entry updated 16 April 2024. Tagged: Music, People.

(1946-2020) US electronic musician, Reiki master and spiritual healer who also recorded as Trans-Millenia Consort. In the 1980s she created several mostly self-released records, including Trans-Millenia Consort (1982), Plot Zero (1983) and Spectre (1984), of gentle, rather beautiful instrumental music that is more personal and unpredictable than most New Age recordings, and often moves into territories similar to German cosmic music of the 1970s. Strom's stated intention was to give musical voice to the visions of ancient civilizations and Utopian futures which she envisioned internally (she was blind from birth). In line with her spiritual teachings, she believed that her music could act as a guide to listeners through journeys into the past and future as well as the present. These once obscure albums were given a new lease of life through reissues in the 2010s and 2020s, and shortly before her death she recorded a new album, Angel Tears in Sunlight (2021), in a similar vein.
