Through the spirit of Japan
& weaving of many life threads of Australian born
Brian Martin & Michele Newport
Harmony Planet WFC "Waraku" is born.
|
With a driving passion to "support the Arts by supporting the Artists",
over. the last few years Brian has been developing World Fusion Concerts
where he brings skilled singers together with high quality musicians of
different World Culture music using an unusual variety of instruments to
create a metaphor of unity, understanding and joy.
Pioneering 'Life Purpose Dynamics' and 'Being Source Remembrance Technologies'
in health, language & education in general, Michele loves to combine
music, the arts and an awareness of many cultures & languages to facilitate
true healing, inner joy & awakening.
Inspired by a deep passion for the power of perspective and facilitating
'every-day magic' within all levels of our global society, she has developed
evolutionary trainings, concerts & events of various kinds as catalysts
to 'remember' one's Life Path & our knowing of the universal principles
that naturally support all life on earth. Her research into the process
of evolution, awareness expansion & conscious creation, done to date
almost exclusively in Japanese, was catalysed in 1996 by a life-inspired
'Global Flow' earth society vision, later called 'Harmony Planet'.
Through the heart & spirit of Japan and the weaving of Brian &
Michele's 'life threads', we have the birth of "Waraku".
On 'World Culture Day', under the guidance of this diverse background and the highly skilled, dynamic facilitation of
'Harmony Maestro' Brain Martin, a group of amazing musicians and A Capella choir members, that have come together specifically for this event,
will gather to deliver a rich tapestry of 'Harmony Planet' inspired world music.
So read on to meet some of the other core co-creators of this event.

"WARAKU"
Harmony Planet World Fusion Band

In so many ways the people who create the 'world fusion' foundations for these concerts are the artists who make up the band. The instruments being used by the Musicians in the 2010 "Waraku" Harmony Planet World Fusion Band include piano, jazz & other guitars, kalimba, jembe, violin and a range of drum and percussion.

A Cappella is the art of singing without using instrumental accompaniment.
The blending of voices in harmony often take the part of various musical instruments, whilst adding an unusual warmth & dynamic found in no other
singing form. The roots of this wonderful style are found in
globally sourced traditional ‘world music’.
This year we have Brian Martin's 'New World Rhythm Global' choir
created specifically to perform & entertain through a variety of music
styles
from the rhythmic sounds of world music including African, Celtic,
Greek and Russian, to the sweet traditional tones of gospel and folk music.
Although only coming together quite recently, these members are already
a family ~ a tribe who specialize in spreading
joy & unity through singing stunning harmonies and having fun.

Brian & Noeline
NWR 〜NEW World Rhythm Performance Choir!
This years NWR A Cappella chorus group created in the Kansai region
of Japan sings many of Brian’s original songs as well as a variety of
songs from
Africa, Australian Aboriginal culture, Gospel and World Folk Music.
Also, this year, we have some members of the NWR Global Choir
that have come from already established choirs both in Australia & Japan.
Chiharu Inoue & Yvonne Corstophin are the choir leaders and they

In preparation for the Hamrony Planet World Fusion concert “Waraku” on
the 3rd November 2010, the NWR choir has dedicated 13 times of performance training
and song rehearsal in which they learn many different techniques for harmony
and blend, voice quality amplification and expression of self through the
many song styles of world folk as well as modern music. The members, who
have during this 13 times process dived in deeply to give themselves many
experiences of the richness and joy possible through the world of music
will be sharing that pure heart energy with us all at the Harmony Planet
WFC Waraku 2010.
Through sharing these multi-layered harmonies of joy they will be offering many opportunities for all of us to experience together the deep peace that comes with recognising we truly are ALL ONE Earth Family & how fun-filled that can be!
