Welcome to Dante's Harmony, where the soulful sounds of sacred steel take center stage. Dante's Harmony is a captivating exploration of music, culture, and the human spirit, featuring a special spotlight on the legendary Maurice "Ted" Beard.

In this episode, we dive deep into Ted Beard's remarkable journey—from his musical roots in Detroit to his pioneering role in shaping the sacred steel sound. As a revered figure in the industry, Ted's influence knows no bounds, and we uncover the secrets behind his innovative approach to the steel guitar.

But our conversation goes beyond the music itself. We delve into Ted's collection of steel guitars, each instrument a testament to his artistry and his deep connection to the sacred steel tradition. We also tackle tough topics like racism, police brutality, and the importance of using music as a tool for social change.

And at the heart of it all lies Ted's unwavering belief in the power of hymns and songs to uplift, inspire, and unite. Through his music, Ted reminds us of the enduring beauty of these timeless melodies and their ability to transcend boundaries and bring people together.

So, whether you're a longtime fan of Ted Beard or a newcomer to the sacred steel scene, Dante's Harmony invites you to join us on this musical odyssey. Tune in, turn up the volume, and let the harmonies of Ted Beard's steel guitar carry you away on a journey you won't soon forget.
