INDIGENOUS DAY
FLOWER SONGS MUSIC
was invited to present
for an
INDIGENOUS DAY celebration
that would feature 8 speakers throughout the course of the day
each person speaking 50 minutes on different aspects
of the indigenous, along with a lunch intermission
FLOWER SONGS was asked to play during the lunch hour
and we informed the organization that we would not be
able to do that but we could provide names and numbers
of countless others that would gladly do so
there was a long pause
and we were asked,
"Why can't you do it?"
we informed them that
"the sound, the timbre, the frequency, the RESONANCE and SILENCE
of the instruments are as important as any words that would be
spoken that day by any speaker..........."
there was complete silence on the other end of the line
and we were told
"I will call you back tomorrow"
the next day they called and informed us that each speaker
would now be speaking 45 minutes, instead of 50 minutes,
which left an additional 40 minutes available in addition
to the luch hour
FLOWER SONGS played the beginning of the conference
for 15 minutes,
and at the end for 15 minutes
and no music was played during the lunch hour
since then FLOWER SONGS continues to be asked
to present numerous times for the same organization
i.e.,
most human beings are kinder than what most people think
and when information is shared in a humanistic way
people become more human
as
WITH WILLINGNESS,
EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE
