Rosslyn Chapel: The Music of the Cubes
Thomas J. Mitchell

"an important testimony" - Classic FM Magazine

The amazing story of a twenty-year quest to discover the meaning behind the strange arcane carvings at Rosslyn, and the most unexpected and intriguing result.  The carvings of Rosslyn were the subject of many investigation and theories over the years, long before the chapel was immortalised in The Da Vinci Code.  Author and composer Tommy Mitchell is one of those who believe that the carvings in the Lady Chapel are in fact a form of musical notation.  He has gone further and actually decoded the music and this book explains how, and much more!

See also the Rosslyn Motet CD which features the music decoded from the carvings at Rosslyn and also Mitchell's companion piece Songs from the Chartres Labyrinth. Or you can buy both book and CD as a discount package.

  "After researching harmonics - which has been sometimes referred to as The Lost Science of Antiquity - for a number of years I find Tommy Mitchell's work is very special. To some this book may appear to be superficial. It can be deceptive in its brevity but it captures an essence in its pages which is profound. The way Tommy interlaces his research at Rosslyn with Fibonacci, the Diatonic Music Scale, Pythagoras, the Enneagram I found to be masterful.This work can be read at a number of levels. I hope it is preserved as a classic of its time. It deserves a place on the shelves of anyone who truly is seeking to understand the profound influences of both seen and unseen forces on our lives. Thank you for taking the time to write this book Tommy - we are the richer for your efforts" - a happy customer from Australia.
