Sounding_One step forward, standing still

Heya, Frequency Friend!

It is fall/winter time in this part of the world, and with it comes thick, heavy rain. There are special days that offer a sort of pouring which evokes a lot of emotions in me. I felt underwater when I started this harp play, questioning how to relate to the emotionality that came with this water – drown or float? I started playing with, for and as the rain, tuning into the quality of the thick droplets, how Nature seemed to react to the rhythmic percussion and moisture. As I tuned into the rain, I tuned into myself more; emotions started to move, I felt more mobile and not so bound by their intensity.

Gratitude to the lands of the Isle of Wight and all that was present with me while improvising this piece.

As always, here’s the invitation for you to sound, hum, drum, compose, express along with me :)

How does this piece move you?
