A very special afternoon of Sacred Sounds being created by two world class Gong Players. Karen Pujals Zildjian Gong Master and Frank DiCristina Harmonic Sound Therapist and Instructor will be teaming up to bring powerful binaural beats and deep drones within a orchestrated composition titled the "Sonic Sound Sandwich."
This event has now become a New Years Day staple with this being our 6th year performing this piece. Every year it has also become a sellout so don't wait to the day of the event to purchase your ticket.
The Sonic Sound Sandwich Gong Immersion offers a deeply meditative experience through the use of soothing vibrations and harmonic tones. Expertly crafted for stress relief, this session utilizes the resonant power of gongs to create a calming auditory environment that promotes relaxation and mindfulness. Participants are immersed in a soundscape designed to balance energy, reduce tension, and foster a sense of inner peace. The gentle vibrations and rhythmic patterns help guide the mind into a state of clarity and tranquility. Suitable for all experience levels, this immersive sound therapy session encourages mental and physical well-being in a supportive setting.
The performance was written for two gong players with the attendees to be laid out in between the players. By having the attendees lie or sit in between instead of in front of the players it allows the audience to fully physically and sonically experience the full presence of the gongs. This will be a very intense experience, energy will be shifting, time will stand still, move backwards and forwards. Come early so as to find a good spot to sit/layout. Last time this was performed there was standing room only left.
Karen is also an astrologer and will give a brief astrology reading for the upcoming year.
