about
I wanted to sculpt a piece that facilitates healing through breathing. The music begins with 8 drum beats that set the pulse for the entire piece. Once this groove is established, the first tones of the synthesizer sound, and I invite the listener to inhale to the count of 4. Then the listener holds their breath for a count of 7. This is followed by a slow exhale to a count of 8, which coincides with a decrescendo in the synthesizer. Immediately following the 8 count, one can begin the cycle again. Inhale for 4 counts while the synthesizer gets louder. Hold the breath for 7 counts while the synthesizer maintains its volume. Exhale for 8 counts while the synthesizer gets quieter.
As the music evolves, one can continue this 4-7-8 breathing pattern throughout the entire piece.
The piece is in just intonation and is tuned to C = 256 cycles per second, which yields A = 432.
I would like to once again thank Anne-Marie Eugene for sharing her poignant insights and creativity in the creation of the music's corresponding image. www.exploringsoul.com
