Sound and Resonance at Power Places
There are places with special energies, often anciently used as cult places or for healing. Accupunctural points of our planet. Some of these places have rooms with a very special sound or resonance tones, inviting to celebrate and go in resonance.
kloster jerichow close to berlin ...wonderful acoustics
the other day i was on the way from berlin to stendal, on the way i saw an abbey and i felt i should have a little stop there...
i asked for making music in there and the guardian invited me to come, he showed me some rooms and we jammed, me singing harmonics with him playing a blues harp..
later when i was singing in the abbey church the suddenly came more harmonics from somewhere....
it was a brilliant singer from north of spain, living in north germany now.. he is specialized in gregorianic chants, giving concerts and a wonderful overtone singer... remembering our singing i still feel very touched.. life is magick ;-)
he also showed me a room we would call Sakristei in german ... very special sound!!
so if you are neer visit it!!

Here in Oslo, Norway we have a place with about 40-45 seconds reverb. It is the former atelier, now mausoleum and museum of painter Emanuel Vigeland, and is increasingly used for concerts, especially by overtone musicians. You can read about this place here:

I have also played there several times with my own band, and on one occasion we recorded the whole
concert:

Naturally I have included Vigelandsmuseet in the discussion 'Nordic Sound Temples' inside this group 'Sound and Resonance at Power Places'.
Also do check out the Acoustic Power Spot world map with all the entries of this group:
