Presented by Ian Marshall.
Join Ian on his Sacred Sound Journey as he explores the realms of the mystical and exotic. Showcasing music and tone that brings us into resonance with a depth beyond ourselves. It could be wild ecstatic dance or a soulful awakening choir, a trance inducing devotional mantra or a piece bringing us to deep meditational stillness. We will experience wild African drums, Indian classical music, and plenty more in between.
Ian has always been a music lover and over the last 10 years or so he has developed an interest in the more healing qualities that sound has to offer, beginning with devotional singing or Kirtan and moving into working with gongs and other instruments that work to calm the nervous system, clear blockages and bring peace.
Expect chats with local gong makers and players, kirtan singers, ecstatic dance facilitators, drummers and vedic chanters as they share their experiences of connecting with sound vibration in a different way.
7pm, every fourth Wednesday from September 22nd 2021.
Born into a family of geniuses in Ireland, the youngest of five girls, I was my parent’s last chance to create perfection.
Tiring of rain-soaked greenery, my parents decided a change of environment was needed, so we headed to the north Highlands of Scotland, which proves my parents had an odd sense of irony.
Hoping that the gold-paved streets of Canada would offer solace, we packed up and went west. We arrived in Calgary, Alberta just in time for the recession of 1981.
It was in Canada that I developed my love of music as the winters are very long and nothing beats the blues like a jaunty tune.
I even took a foray into being in a band. We performed world music with a rumba flamenca infusion and for a brief moment, we lived the dream.
Upon entering my dotage, I returned to the UK, single, flat broke and none the wiser…
