    What happens when Women Handpan in the Wild?

    Last May, we were thrilled to participate in the inaugural US-based Women's Handpan Gathering, Super Bloom, nestled in New York's Catskill Mountains. Celebrating this unique assembly, we crafted a 9-minute highlight reel showcasing the joy and connections formed at this empowering event.

    Super Bloom welcomes all who identify as women, offering a space for learning, rejuvenation, and music-making, with a special invitation for others to witness this unity through our video.

    This year, we're excited to return, offering amazing prizes and an array of We Play Well Together instruments for participants to explore. Super Bloom stands as a testament to the strength and creativity of women united by music, set against a backdrop of nature, with a program designed for relaxation, exploration, and shared musical experiences.

    feeltone KoTaMo: Concert Monochord Meditation with Annette Abraminko

    For our April 2023 Monochord Monday Meetup, Annette Abraminko from Chesham, UK, shared a deeply moving and educational presentation on the feeltone KoTaMo Concert Monochord, a versatile instrument combining a monochord, Kotamo, and Tanpura.
    Through a video made specifically for the webinar, Annette, living with MS and a terminal prognosis, opened up about her journey of self-healing and care through sound therapy in her "Sound Sanctum" space. She also discussed adaptive techniques for players with disabilities, fostering an inclusive approach to music.
    Participants were then invited to engage in a collective play session, further enriching the community experience. Annette's story, along with over 65 other informative videos, can be explored in our Monochord Monday Meetup library, accessible for free to group members.

    ASMR Monolina Journey Morning Meditation

     

    Let's start the day with a soothing Monolina Meditation. Join Chelsea Caroline for an 11-minute ASMR journey, exploring the serene sounds of the Monolina D tuned to 432 Hz.

    The monochord, including our 34-string Monolina and 21-string Monilini models from feeltone, showcases its versatility and the wide range of creative expressions it enables. Despite its simplicity, the instrument offers a mesmerizing experience, especially when its dreamy drones are combined with hypnotic rhythms and melody accent notes, as Chelsea beautifully demonstrates.

    Dive into this tranquil session with Chelsea, who not only introduces us to the Monolina Monochord's rich harmonic possibilities but also immerses us in a rhythmic exploration. Whether you choose to watch the visual journey or simply close your eyes and listen, this video is a perfect way to gently awaken and find peace.

    Discover more from Chelsea Caroline by following her music on her YouTube Channel. It's time to embrace the day with harmony! 🌞
