At the nadir of winter, the time of deepest cold and lowest natural activity, the sound of the resonant percussion family of instruments takes on a special appeal. The metallophones—bells, bowls, gongs, chimes, and cymbals—speak eloquently in the chilled, quiet air.
Whether used for religious ceremonies in ancient Buddhist mountain cultures like Tibet; for sound healing and therapeutic work; or for creative experimental music—these instruments have a sublime elegance and power.
On this transmission of HEARTS of SPACE, another winter journey for resonant percussion, on a program called "METALLOPHONIC 2". Music is by SHAWN FEENEY, LAURA INSERRA, HANG MASSIVE, THOMAS BRETT, ED MANN, and KARMA MOFFETT.
