ThIS™ SoundBath Extraordinaire – LA 3/6

In this unforgettable evening of meditative sounds, attendees are invited to “get horizontal” and enjoy a magical immersive sonic experience created by this group of world class musicians: flutes, gongs, singing bowls, violin, voice, guitar, gentle drums, rattles… bliss

8:30pm Friday, March 6

Mary & Joseph Conference Center

SoundBath with Naaz Hosseini and Peter Blum is a unique concert / meditation event that creates a “sonic bath” or “field of sacred sound”. You are encouraged to experience this horizontally – lying on blankets or yoga mats and allowing the other-worldly sounds to guide you into deep contemplative states. Seating is available, if you prefer.

Naaz and Peter have been presenting meditative sound concerts for nearly two decades, and have recorded two CD’s together – “Pulse Field” in 2002 and “Singing Bowls and One” in 2004. Peter is known for his work with sacred singing metals.  Performances feature his collection of over 30 Himalayan singing bowls, large gongs, tingshas, Sabian singing bells, as well as tamboura, flutes, Moyo drum and hand percussion. Joined by Naaz’s exquisite vocals and violin music, their sounds transport you to ancient and future dreamscapes.
