LIVE MUSIC:  The Music of the Plants!

We can now offer the exciting opportunity to hear first-hand music played by trees in the garden.  Through the ingenious U1 Music of the Plants device, developed in the Damanhur Spiritual Community in Italy and for sale in the UK from Cygnus Books, humanity is able to hear the songs of plants.  The biorhythms of plants are sent through electrodes into a synthesizer, and the energy of the plant is translated as musical notes.  The plant itself plays the music, and you have never heard anything quite like it – it is a profound experience in which you, the listener, are connected to the moment and to nature in a very beautiful way.

The organic pace of such music makes for excellent background music in healing environments, especially when you consider that the plant is playing ‘live’ and so is connected in a symbiotic relationship to those in the area.  To hear the songs of the green world offers a new connection to and relationship with the Earth in a subconscious and potentially transformative experience.

Different plants play at different times of the year.  Our garden studio is an informal setting for experiencing the music of the plants.   Generally, we connect one plant or tree per day and allow it to play until the music subsides – some plants will play all afternoon, which allows for a lengthy period of meditation for anyone wishing to do so.  Quiet seating areas are available for those who wish to meditate. If it is raining, the device is set up inside the studio with a potted plant, but please consider that a dry day is best, especially for groups.

 Places to Stay

There are several hotels and B&Bs in and around Llanelli.  The closest to us is the Stradey Park Hotel, about 200 metres around the corner.  In the town centre is the newly-built Travelodge.  Nearer to the beach are several B&Bs, and from the beach, the cycle path leading to Swiss Valley Reservoir crosses Lakeview Terrace where the Wendrich artHouse Temple Gallery is situated (bikes may be hired at the beach). 

Why not take a mini-break and visit us within this beautiful community of South Wales?
