"I have always been inspired by the natural and spirit worlds.

When I listen to Native American music, or when I play my Native Flute, I feel positive, relaxed, filled with energy and well-being.

Great Spirit expresses what I feel in my Heart: Peace, Love, and great thanks to our Mother Earth."

The moon on the sea

A Waste Land Companion is, as its title implies, an addendum to Boris Rogowski‘s
album The Waste Land which was released in February 2023 on Piano and Coffee
Records. A meditation on the infamous eponymous 1922 poem by T.S. Eliot, The
Waste Land traces its psychological journey through a barren world in search of lifegiving
water as well as its physical journey through London on the zenith of
Modernism.

During the recording sessions for the album—whose sound is characterised by the
interplay between a string quartet, flute and a collection of specifically created,
deeply warped and tape-weathered samples—over 20 pieces were recorded.
Rogowski had originally intended to use all of them in chronological order, beginning
with the famous part about April being the „cruellest month“. However, it turned out
that a shorter playlist and a strictly musical order worked better for the album.
Rogowski decided to focus on the string-centred pieces to give the album a dreamlike,
hypnotic pull. However, as he valued the shorter, piano-based pieces just as
much, the idea for a companion (mini) album was born almost immediately.

It was a most sensible decision: Chamber gems like „The Hyacinth Girl“ and „A
Wicked Pack of Cards“, mixing English folklore with nods to Richard Wagner’s Tristan
and Isolde, might have gotten lost between the dark, monolithic soundscapes of the
album. Here, however, framed by works for solo piano and harmonium, they are
allowed to shine. A Waste Land Companion begins and ends with two piano pieces
only loosely connected to T.S. Eliot’s poem: „Dear Jessie (to Jessie Laidlay Weston)“ is
an ethereal miniature in reverence of the brilliant English medievalist whose book
From Ritual to Romance, a historical examination of the King Arthur legend, greatly
influenced Eliot while working on The Waste Land. „Universe on a shoestring“ is even
serener, a kind of exhalation after a long and arduous journey. It was the last piece
Rogowski composed during his concluding writing session in the mountains of the
island of La Palma. Here, close to the GTC, the world’s largest optical telescope, the
universe seemed closer than anywhere else on earth—and the grim world of The
Waste Land already a distant memory.

De Mundi Statu

The Goddess Danu is an earth goddess who was also known for her qualities of inspiration, intellect and wisdom. She is also known as a warrior Goddess. Her name was associated with flowing water. She was worshiped in Ireland before the advent of Christianity that eventually banished the healing-wisdom ways of the Old Religion. 

Danu is the protector of the Faery People, the Tuatha Dé Danann, which translates as the “People of the Goddess Danu”. The Tuatha Dé Danann are a high frequency race that were also known as the Shining Ones. (Please note the Faery Races are not to be confused with elemental nature spirits. The Shining Ones are not one race but many and some are much taller than human beings. Some of them resemble to some degree the Elvish Race as depicted in the Lord of the Rings.) As the earth descended in frequency the Tuatha Dé Danann, who had not made the collective decision to descend, “stepped sideways into the light” and disappeared from this world. They entered into an inner earth dimension that was more suited to their high vibration. The Tuatha Dé Danaan or Shining Ones” can only be contacted now by those of pure heart who are on a path of ascending light. 

(This transmission was inspired by my visit to some gorgeous sacred sites in Ireland, December 2019.)
