Description:
Invocation: ( n v -k sh n) 1. the act of invoking or calling upon some agent for assistance 2. a prayer asking God for help, forgiveness, etc. 3. an appeal for inspiration from a Muse or a deity at the beginning of a poem 4.a. the act of summoning a spirit from another world by ritual incantation or magic b. the incantation used in this act. Contemplate for a moment - sound. It is all around us. And it is with us everyday, for all of our lives. It's prime purpose for living beings is communication. Since the dawn of humankind, a fascinating and diverse array of languages has evolved, but the most universal of all languages, is music. For centuries, music has been an integral element of ritual and ceremony in cultures throughout the world - its influence has become all-pervasive. Now, in the 21st Century, music is seemingly an indispensable part of living. The effect of music on the individual is uniquely personal, and has the power to penetrate one's core - more so, perhaps, than any other form of communication. Inspired by spirits passed and created in the moment, the emotion of the fraternal musical dialogue on Invocations is raw and powerful, from its mesmerizing drones to the dense maelstrom of its pure, unbridled energy. The participants draw deep from within themselves as they not only explore the sonorous capabilities of their instruments - the potency of this musical interaction is exhilarating, and the sound, galvanizing. This music demands that you, also as a participant, abandon conventional ways of listening. Albert Ayler said, "…try to move your imagination toward the sound. It's a matter of following the sound." Immerse yourself in this sound. Open yourself to its energy. Answer the call. Let it arouse the primal spirit within - it's power is euphoric. Invocations is like the utterly distinctive, soul-stirring muezzin's call to prayer, and is driven by a passionate commitment to music and the expression of self through it. Track Listing:
