Sound Bath Sessions 118: Yeyette San Luis

Yeyette has been involved with ritual music performances since the early 90s but has been learning sound healing for the past decade. She has a group of white crystal bowls and a few other instruments. She made her nose flute and rain stick at instrument-making workshops taught by members of the KontraGaPi, a music group that plays indigenous Filipino instruments. This track began with the fragile sounds of the nose flute. After playing some drones on the bowls, she eventually settled on a single tone and started singing. She called it ‘Spirit Singing’. “If it comes, it comes. I don’t have control of it.” It was an emotionally heavy track as she shed tears until the last note was sung.
