Sound Bath 049- Giorgio

Bivouac Recording SC

Giorgio has an amazing antique collection that encompasses many different styles of bowls, each with their own characteristic. Some had several amazing sounds both dissonant and harmonious all within one bowl. When purchasing new bowls, he prefers the adventure and serendipity of exploring and finding single bowls with character rather than purchasing complete sets. This creates his eclectic signature sound. Giorgio has a deep knowledge of music throughout his life and is the only practitioner I have recorded so far with formal music training. He enjoys wandering around the unstructured improvisations that sound baths allow always listening and experimenting for new sonic discoveries. This was the first recording I made of Giorgio at his Apartment in Central with his collection of unique bowls. The beauty of this recording is that you can listen to the recording to admire his personal collection of sounds or for meditation purposes. When you listen try to hear the subtle nuances of all the bowls he plays. Some characteristics come out depending on how hard the bowl is struck. Others come out when sounded with other bowls. All in all, it is a very relaxing track.
