Living Meditation Project: An Ecstatic Listening Soundbath

Living Meditation Project: An Ecstatic Listening Soundbath with Fahad Siadat and guest artist Molly Pease

This one hour event is one-part deep listening soundbath and one-part ecstatic meditation. This event is part of an on-going exploration of the intersection between creative and spiritual practices with composer/performer Fahad Siadat who will be joined by guest vocalist Molly Pease. During the event, the artists will employ musical tools including musical drones, rhythmic patterning, and free improvisation to induce a trance / transcendental space for listeners.

Attendees are invited to bring their voices and/or instruments and actively participate as players or just enjoy the sounds and bliss out.

About the artists:

Fahad Siadat creates interdisciplinary pieces that reclaim and redefine sacred music and “border on being a spiritual journey” (LA Dance Chronicle). His work is described by the press as “evoking wonder, desire, and terror” (Off Broadway), “hypnotic” (Backstage) and having “a sophisticated harmonic vocabulary” (San Diego Story).

Fahad is the director of the Resonance Collective, a multifaceted organization which explores and expands our definition of sacred music. He is also the director and singing member of LA’s premiere new music vocal ensemble HEX.

Fahad maintains a robust performing and recording schedule and has performed as soloist with such groups as LA’s groundbreaking opera company The Industry, and the Grammy Award-Winning ensemble PARTCH, as well as on recordings for artists such as Daniel Lentz and WildUp.His music has been performed in Europe, China, and across the United States.

Molly Pease is an eclectic LA-based singer, composer and improviser with experience in a wide range of musical styles including folk, jazz, classical, opera, experimental, contemporary, and improvisatory music. Molly is an avid explorer of extended vocal sounds, in both her performance and composition.
