Michael Stillwater Weekend

Join us for a weekend of music and film with composer, filmmaker, and artist Michael Stillwater.

FRIDAY - Michael Stillwater is hosting the film, In Search of the Great Song

SATURDAY EVENING - CHANTWAVE
ChantWave is a practice of singing to remember who we are when we 'get out of the way'. The result can be a feeling of connection to the source of life, to ourselves, and to each other. The practice of vocalizing chants and songs of sacred or healing lyrics, to shift from a 'head consciousness' to a 'heart consciousness', is an ancient tradition with contemporary interpretation.

"Michael has created a most accessible journey. All we have to do is jump on board and take the ride." -Deva Premal and Miten, Recording Artists

SUNDAY AFTERNOON - THE HONORING
In response to themes spoken by participants, original songs are created and recorded, spontaneously, in the moment. The themes of healing, empowerment, right relationship and awakening are often referred to.

The Honoring combines the transformative power of music with the shared intention of participants. Our inherent worth and capacity for empathy and compassion is recognized. These original songs simultaneousy benefit the recipient and the other participants. The power of presence and intention, echoed through participant-sung choruses, is easy to feel.

The Honoring songs are recorded for participants to receive as a remembrance of the experience. The recording, sent afterward as mp3 files via email, also provides an ongoing 'music medicine'.
