Kaval Sviri (Live improvisation at Cacao Ceremony, 20240721)
5:52
Have you seen the golden lake river at night? The full giant golden moon, drops its fragments on the dark-hole waters, and dyed it to be golden.
Thus, all of the divine spirits, living spirits, witches, humans, ghosts, start to sing.
I joined a cacao ceremony by coincidence last night, and felt the power to improvise this song. This song started with few phrases of Bulgarian song called “Kaval Sviri”, but even myself don’t know the meaning of the text. The lyrics has no meaning, and I want to return the meaning to every single audience and connect to their own feelings and emotions. Whatever you feel, it is the meaning.
It feels so good that nobody knows me. We are all pure and sincere disciples of music, no matter of our background. Music is not my business card, not my cash or sword to defense or decorate and sell myself. It’s something I want to create and share with the community at that moment. We let the music flow, and allow all of the possibilities to happen.
When the ceremony ends, I looked up the sky, and it was the giant golden moon.
在这里我可以脱掉我所有的衣服。没有人认识我,我们都是对音乐纯粹的热爱,创造和分享,不是一场比赛。与职业或素人无关。音乐不是我的钞票和武器。
你见过夜晚金色的湖水吗?金色的巨大圆月,把黑洞般的湖水也染成金色。
于是,巫,神,人,鬼,生灵,开始歌唱。
