NŪR: A Choral Sound Bath with Bloom Sound Collective

After a sold-out event in 2023, Bloom Sound Collective 🌸 will resurrect its signature experience: the choral sound bath. 💫

Molding together choral music and traditional sound healing rituals, this event will feature:

• 12 of New York City's best vocalists 🎶
• 4-5 sound healing artists 🧘‍♀️
• 1 cellist 🎻
  

Inspired by the diversity of our shared human experience, this program will honor a variety of spiritual traditions to celebrate the divine light (or "NŪR") that shines within us all. 🙏

Listeners will enjoy choral repertoire by Caroline Shaw, John Tavener, Anna Þorvaldsdóttir, and Frank Ticheli alongside healing instruments like crystal and Himalayan singing bowls, gongs, shruti box, chimes, drums, and many more. 🌀

Honoring everything from mystic Islam to Paganism to traditional Christianity and more, this program is carefully curated to remind us of the power of the human spirit and the human voice — a healing instrument we all possess. 🤲🏼

Whether you're a lover of choral music, a dedicated meditator, or simply looking for a unique and uplifting experience, this event is for you. 🦋 Bring your most open and authentic selves.

is a community of musicians and sound healing artists that create safe and supportive spaces for sonic exploration and self-discovery through sound baths and immersive concerts. Since its founding in 2022, the Collective has worked with renowned collaborators in New York City including the World Trade Center, Cathedral of St. John the Divine, Choral Chameleon, Sound Mind Live, Yvette Vexta, and Spirituality Week NYC. Bloom's signature "choral sound bath" molds vocal repertoire with traditional sound healing instruments and has been produced across the city and the greater northeast — bringing sound meditation to new audiences through innovative and first-of-its-kind programming.

We value: Artistry ✿ Equity ✿ Gratitude ✿ Service ✿ Community

We recognize, with great respect, that our practice here in New York City sits on Indigenous land – the unceded traditional territory of the Lenni-Lenape peoples. We acknowledge the sound healing traditions of ancient Indigenous cultures, the Lenni-Lenape community, their elders both past and present, as well as future generations and their continuing presence and relationship with their homeland.
