Papiro synthesises and converts echoes of acoustic wind instr…

Voices [for solo voice]
*2025 stock. 190 copies limited edition* "Voices" is a project born as a live performance for solo voice and loop station. The study of tribal rituals of some primitive cultures has been the main source of inspiration for my work. As various anthropological texts affirm, shamanic rituals are not based solely on music produced by rhythmic instruments (rattles, tambourines and other percussions). It is often the shaman's sing that induces trance. He uses his own voice, producing guttural, hissing,…
