Still
A Sunrise Sound Bath in Reverence of Nature
Expand into stillness.
Sense our interrelationship with the earth.
Be here, together, for this fleeting, magnificent moment.
Merge with the morning as the rising sun paints the ocean in warm hues, the sky a subtle tapestry. A breathtaking canvas for this daily symphony of beauty, awe, and wonder.
Experience an immersive sonic journey with STILL, anew work conceived by Dancenorth’s Artistic DirectorKyle Page. Housed within a stunning architecturallydesigned space by Liminal Spaces, you and 21 otherguests will collectively witness the dawn of a new daywhile being cradled by the sounds of Canadian composerJessica Moss (Thee Silver Mt. Zion, Black Ox Orkestar).
