Perspectives

From the album "Ver Sacrum"
“Throughout history, this expression has been used to describe various ritual group expulsions and the deduction of colonies, particularly with regard to people getting back to nature.
For example, the Italian town of Nocera was founded in the 7th Century BC by inhabitants from Camerinum, who left their ancestral homeland during a so-called Ver Sacrum.
In ancient Rome, during times of calamities such as pandemics, earthquakes, wars, or plagues, they used to devote children born in spring – from the 1st of March to the 30th of April – to the gods Jupiter and Mars. Then, when they turned 20 or 21, these children were required to leave the community to begin new settlements”
________________________________________
Sounding like some long lost, sacred canon, Ver Sacrum – the new album from Bruno Sanfilippo – marks something of a departure for the Barcelona-based pianist and composer. Far more orchestral in nature, there’s a spiritual, quasi-religious force to these pieces; strings swoop and soar, maudlin organs plough slowly, sorrowfully forward, while several sopranos add to the ecclesiastical air. But there’s hope and joy here too, and a childlike playfulness – playing these tensions against each other is what makes Ver Sacrum such an intense, rewarding listen. Inspired and informed by the ancient custom of ritualised expulsions of the same name, one can find the whole spectrum of humanity within these nine pieces: sorrow, loss, love, rebirth, change, hope, and the indefatigable human spirit. It’s what gives this music its power. Derek Robertson, journalist and music writer: Guardian, Independent, NME, VICE, Timeout, The Quietus, The Face.

Song II

I visited Sri Lanka's Sinharaja rainforest during the monsoon season with the hope of recording some of it’s unique wildlife, but the torrential rain forced me to spend most of my time sheltering inside a lodge! However on the final morning of my stay the rain eased for a few hours and I had a brief opportunity to record the sounds you hear on this album.

The full 65 minute, 6 track album is downloadable from https://wildambience.com/albums/storm-in-sinharaja/

📝 Lyrics:

Morning light underneath stars
I remember well

Time will go so far another life
will be here to tell
I remember you well

Did you ever wonder where you will go?
Into the endless stars love

Did you ever wonder how you would tell
When all else is forgiven

Seems I’m lost in a dream
Am I on the inside of a dream?

Morning light, underneath the waves
I remember well

On the earth I saw a glance of grace
Through the endless call
I remember you well

Did you ever wonder from where you have come?
Within the seeds of time love

Did you ever wonder what will take you there?
On horizons of freedom 

Seems I’m lost in a dream
Am I on the inside of a dream
