"A beautiful story of Bach’s cello suites explored afresh under inspiring and fiercely challenging circumstances. Reading Judy’s book was a moving way to be reminded of her lively, thoughtful and adventurous approach to life - aspects that were such a positive influence for all the years she lived here in Boulder and taught at CU."
Ed Dusinberre, First Violinist, Takacs Quartet and author of Beetho Read more of this blog post »

Under the Goddess of the Sky

"My book came, and I can't put it down! I feel like I'm right there with you. (We) really wanted to go to the Himalayas, but we never got there. Thank you for writing this!" Reader from Alabama

About Judith's book, "Under the Goddess of the Sky"
“Inspired by the grandeur of the Himalayas, the dignity and
kindnesses of the simple Sherpa villagers who took her in,
and her beloved cello, Judith Glyde explores the central
questions that define our humanity. Her memoir of those
months reads like a novel. But it’s the depth of her
reflections — the insecurities, the uncertainties, self-doubt
and, in the end, the glorious accomplishment of being truly
alive and in harmony — that stay with us. A brilliant,
courageous piece of writing.”– Greg Fields, Koehler Books
