Metta
A rejuvenating sound massage for body, mind and spirit with
acoustic instruments. The five elements are represented by
corresponding instruments and themes, combined with nature
recordings and sounds of the elements produced in the studio.
In "Water" the sound of the sansa melts into the
stream of the monochord and we imagine drifting down a warm
rainy river.
In "Fire" the sitar portrays Raga Malkoush, which
is a very energetic and peaceful raga associated with a meditation
of Lord Shiva.
The exchanges of melodies between the bansuri and the sitar
evoke the ever-flowing and ever-changing qualities of "Wind".
The transcendental sound of the sansa together with the singing-bowl
and cymbals express the image of the soundless element "Ether".
With "Earth" come back down and get rooted through
the sound of the Australian didjeridoo, the Buddhist mantra,
the Amerindian framedrum and a Bengali folk theme elaborated
on the sitar. |
