about

Life reings deep in the Pacific Ocean. In lulling waves it washes Kamchatka Peninsula. Here, in the valley flanked by volcanic belts, a choir of boys sings. Kamchatka lies on the far-far east of Russian lands.
Fire, Ice and craftsmanship of this abudant lands expressed into unique alloy of bronze and brass - the orthodox flat bells - the central sound.
Then, somewhere in the forest we meet a prehistoric boy. Surrounded by birds, he plays his simplest wind instrument made of apricot tree - the Armenian duduk. He plays Rast Makam (Persian word meaning "correct" or "straight"). Rast is an old Sufi maqam which also means the path of light. His melody is primitive but tricky.

“ …Only the Central Sound has the power to attract the consciousness to the center and carry the soul to the center of a higher realm. Other illusory material sounds do not have that magnetism to attract the consciousness to the higher realms.”
