Wakas Thoughts on Life and Love and All Things in Between

Opera Collaboration #6

Thrilled to have crossed the halfway line on my quest for 10 tracks, I am delighted to present Opera Collaboration #6 smilesmile

The source of material for this one is a poem by Rumi, read BEAUTIFULLY by my Opera friend SANSHAN.

Take some time to go visit her excellent blog! smile

Once again, a HUGE thank you to Sandy for her excellent contribution and for giving me permission to post. smilesmile

Michaelmichael_aka_emilien Monday, October 9, 2006 10:36:25 AM

I liked it very much!
It a great work indeed!
It's kinda synthesis of the sisters of mercy and einstruzende neubauten! A great synthesis!

Know what? I can't listen to such beautiful tracks in mp3-128kbps, we need a better quality, are we?!))))

Johnhalf_tech Tuesday, October 10, 2006 4:18:55 AM

Great work Waka, Sandy and Rumi! You guys ROCK! smile

I had to turn this one up full PC speaker volume! smile and sent shivers smile "Disciplined Silence" sweet. "Two and one" - energy and emotion comes to mind. smile I recently wrote a poem on this topic and shows wonderous bliss.

Sansanshan Tuesday, October 10, 2006 4:35:41 AM

I wonder what Rumi would think of all this. right

Wakajawaka Tuesday, October 10, 2006 2:08:30 PM

Glad you liked it HT smilesmile

Michaelmichael_aka_emilien Monday, October 16, 2006 4:17:40 AM
