New Sound Journey for March!

We were very excited to offer our latest adventure in sound to the  Forever Cacao Club community at the March Cacao Club last Friday! Titled The Birth of Tara, it weaves together the chants of Avalokiteshvara and Green Tara with Raga Bhimpalasi in Alap.

Cacao Club is the monthly event held by Forever Cacao, a small, artisan chocolate company who have a direct and highly responsible trade relationship with the Ashaninka community in Peru who in turn harvest, ferment and dry the wild grown, organic cacao that is then shipped to a small Welsh village (not very far from us at all), for alchemising into pure, ceremonial grade cacao and award winning chocolate bars. Annabeth discovered Cacao Club at the end of 2019 and says "it was the first time I'd found a regular place to go sober dancing since I stopped drinking every weekend after losing one of my best mates to alcoholism. The (highly unpretentious) ritual evening begins with a meditative cup of freshly prepared cacao before launching into a few hours of dancing courtesy of the accomplished resident DJ Pablo (who also just so happens to make the cacao), and is rounded up beautifully by a variety of practitioners offering healing sound baths to integrate the evening. Finding Cacao Club was an unrestrained delight and it's become a highlight of my month ever since."
​

​So, it was an honour and a privilege for us to bring our latest journey to the event and we hope to do it again some time! For now, you can immerse yourself in the gentle melodic waves of our final practice before the night here (and listen out for Lacey the cat purring her approval at the end)!
