Sound Bath Sessions 307: Winnie Tan

Winnie started learning about sound baths around 2022 and she realized that along with her enjoyment of playing the instruments, she also wanted to help heal people with her sounds. As it was a public holiday, there was plenty of life at the park, kids playing basketball, people fishing, kids running and their parents strolling around the pond enjoying the cool dusk temperature before leaving to eat dinner. 'I love the chimes!' Winnie exclaims. In her short sessions, after she played the first instrument of crystal bowls or a crystal harp, the conclusion would be an extended scene of solo wind chimes. As the park population dwindled with the fading light, the human sounds began to give way to new visitors as the murmur of insects and birds began their evening chorus. Winnie's 4 tracks had this amazing sense of place and time, and captured a delicate Mise-en-scène that is so often and easily ignored. Sometimes all we need to do is just sit still and listen.
