Cousin Silas - Sunset On Tomnaverie (Edit)

16.12.2023 Now S

In the hushed serenity of winter's embrace, the ethereal melodies of the Melody of Broken Cake Plates gently weave a tapestry of mellow, soft, and melancholic snow songs. Born from a deep connection to the quiet beauty of winter landscapes, the Melody of Broken Cake Plates's music captures the essence of snowfall and the delicate dance of frost-kissed moments.

The essence of the Melody of Broken Cake Plates's sound lies in the delicate fusion of acoustic warmth and the crystalline purity of winter's touch. The hauntingly tender compositions invite listeners to immerse themselves in a world where time slows down, and every note is a snowflake gently settling on the soul.

It Is Me, Snowfall

Where do I go From Here

¿Where Do I Go From Here? (naviarhaiku534)

Deep in the mountains -
falling into my heart
autumn streams

Shinkei (1406-75) was a renowned renga poet and critic, best known for his two-part work "Sasamegoto" (Murmured Conversations). To find out more about this interesting and largely unknown poet-priest, Marco from Naviar recommends reading Heart's Flower - The Life and Poetry of Shinkei by Esperanza Ramirez-Christensen.
