Let the sound carry you where words cannot go.
A gentle, profound close to the Wellness Festival week.
A Sea of Peace is a contemplative concert weaving together original music, narrative, and atmospheric sound. A creation story unfolds, accompanied by a rich tapestry of voice, piano, harmonium, drums, bass, flute, and guitar. Between the melodies, elemental instruments like gong, rain stick, ocean drum, and singing bowl evoke the primal textures of earth and sky.
This is not theatre. It is not spiritual performance. It is a living invocation of peace, carried by sound and silence alike.
What to Expect:
A spacious and soulful evening. Nothing is asked of you, only that you come as you are, receive, relax, and remember. Voice is at the heart of this offering: pure, spacious, and unadorned. Layered harmonies, solo voices, and mantra-like refrains weave through piano, gongs, bowls, guitar, and percussion to create a rich tapestry of resonance.
Presented by Wisdom-Light Ensemble
A collective of international singers, musicians, and sound artists from New Zealand, Australia, Russia, Benin, Serbia, Bosnia, and Wales, united by a shared devotion to sound as a sacred language.
Presented as a gift to the community, their concerts are offered in the spirit of peace for the soul of the listener, and the soul of the world.
