After successful concert at Pitanga musicians took some time to share with us some thoughts over their breakfast. Early morning didn't break the light spirit of the night before, and Maarten told us that the name OTO comes from otology - science for the ear. Research in music expression leaded Maarten and Robert to India, where they've met Holger, and one lead to another until few weeks back they assembled the trio OTO3. To all three music is life, and because they're sincere in their journeys they spend most of their time for it. As Maarten said, music has to be part of you, that can be expressed, and he is very honest in his compositions. For them he sets out some musical parameters, boundaries, works with few good ideas, and the rest is music.

Once again the room at Pitanga was almost too small for all those who wanted to listen to the concert of Contemporary Compositions in sound, and yet the intimacy of the room proved to be just the right frame for this special experience. The light and humorous approach and the explanations about the compositions by the author, Maarten, evoked laughter amongst the audience. But still the compositions sounded somehow playful on the given structure, although the approach was taken quite seriously. One's mind could flow freely with the compositions, be amused over sudden turns, and still be fully present all the time. One of the events where everybody was in no hurry to go home.

This track was recorded at Sergio's in Minati about 4-5 years ago. At that time we were a trio consisting of two guitarists and a percussionist/vocal. We were composing our own pieces; often Sergio would write down the main themes and work on the sound engineering, whilst Maurizio and I would enrich the pieces and add our personal touches. We aimed at creating a new genre that fused our musical knowledge with the yearning of our hearts. Something that represented our need to explore further as musicians in the spirit of Auroville.

Maurizio Gabriel adorava la musica e la vita. Dopo un percorso di ricerca spirituale che lo aveva portato in una yeshiva (una scuola di insegnamento della bibbia) a Gerusalemme Gabriel era arrivato ad Auroville e qui era di tutti i cori e di tutte le orchestre con i suoi strumenti a corde. Amatore del cibo si era anche trovato un lavoro di cuoco nello spaccio del Pour Tous. Gabriel e' andato a cantare con gli angeli il 29 dicembre. Potete ascoltarlo nel nostro programma a lui dedicato.

In two days of very intense and various Christmas fair events at Youth Center we had a chance to see, participate, taste ...so much...and amongst others Suryan into a pleasant surprise to many decided to bring joy with his sweet voice. He accompanied himself on guitar, as usual, and later on Nico joined him with rhythm - percussion part of the performance. Although it was an open show - jam session, no one else didn't have the courage to join them on the stage. And what started as a sweet soft signing, ended as a lyrics powerful, and rhythmic encouraging mood to the party ...

Krishna McKenzie unwinds over many cups of coffee in the tranquility of Solitude Farm, talking in detail about the 'Lively Up Your Earth' eco-music festival coming up in January, about the vision behind the the 14 year old sustainable farming community, and about music, change and living a life close to nature. Krishna, who leads Emergence, a unique music group that creates a versatile blend of genres such as Jazz, Rock, Funk and Carnatic, also gives us a flavor of his music every time he feels like picking up the acoustic guitar that lies waiting next to him.
