The 7 Tones of Balance and Musical Ecology of the Mind are music for
piano and resonance composed and performed by the pianist
Daniel
Levy.
The fundamental aim of this work is to enable the listener to
achieve self-awareness, actively and consciously, through the tonal
resonance, silences and melodies that make up the body of harmony
within every human being.
The TONES are a heritage common to us all; they act as a tonic, they
create the right tension in everyone's string. They reveal our
innate Tuner, that knows instinctively which of our notes need
adjusting. The TONES provide the finest nourishment for the psyche;
thus these volumes are like an inexhaustible food supply for the
spirit, righting the deficiencies and imbalances common to our time.
When listening to THE SEVEN TONES OF BALANCE and MUSICAL ECOLOGY OF
THE MIND, you must follow some basic essential principles. The Tones
bring the mind back to its natural state of completeness, calmness,
stability and balance. The more attentive the listening is, the
greater the effects. It is important not to daydream (the fleeting,
ephemeral dreams that take you away from reality).
After making sure that you are in a silent environment, follow these
simple steps:
Sit comfortably with your back straight, in a relaxed position,
your head slightly bent.
Allow your eyelids to partially close.
Experience your psychical and physical body as a single hearing
sense, allowing the sound you hear to permeate your entire being.
Its centre extends for about an open hand-span's width at the
top of your head.
For
a profound level of listening try to remember the following points:
Listening to the natural resonance of the tones is the
therapeutic agent par excellence. Allow your being to be washed,
as it were, with a sonorous bath or 'harmonic flow'.
You should be able to
perceive the richness of these harmonics and by going back to
them again and again and by listening actively rather than
passively, you can evoke the inner resonance and make them
harmonise. This will balance the physical, emotional, mental and
spiritual bodies.
Just as when you have a bath you give no thought to the hydrogen
atoms that constitute the water itself, nor the beneficial and
purifying effect of the oxygen within it, so it should be when you
listen to the tones. Although you are active and present, you are
not listening in a critical manner, but soaking up the pure
therapeutic charge of the tones themselves. Your body will take what
it needs from the sonorous water of Pythagoras' musical-therapeutical
treatment, allowing a feeling of well-being to unfold and grow.
These recordings have been made using techniques that, although
sophisticated, are entirely natural. In order to preserve the purity
of the sounds, neither editing nor acoustic electronic effects are
added. Although the music on every CD is the result of long study,
it is improvised around tones, intervals, melodies and themes. Some
tiny, almost imperceptible natural sounds, such as breathing, the
environment, the noise of pedals or strings, have been left in so as
not to disturb the flow, but as with a live performance, they do not
distract the listener.
