Sound Bath at Domus de Janas - Su Murrone, Sardinia

This session was recorded at the Domus de Janas of Su Murrone, near Chiaramonti in northern Sardinia.

These structures are among the oldest human-made spaces on the island.

Carved directly into stone, thousands of years ago.

They are often referred to as “fairy houses”.

Not because of myth,but because their origin and purpose remain partly unknown.


The Place

Unlike open landscapes, this is a contained space.

Sound does not expand outward.

It returns.

The stone reflects everything.

Each tone comes back altered, slightly delayed, never exactly the same.

Silence here is different.

Denser. Closer.


The Sound

In this session, Pasquale plays crystal singing bowls.

Sustained tones that interact directly with the space.

There is no need to play louder.

The room does the work.

Each frequency settles into the stone and returns in layers.

What you hear is not only the instrument.

But the space responding to it.


A Space Shaped for Sound

Places like this were not empty.

They were made.

Carved with intention.

Used for rituals, burials, or something we no longer fully understand.

What remains is the acoustic quality.

A space that holds and transforms sound.


Watch the Session



Listening Inside Stone

There is less distance here.

Less separation.

The sound is immediate.

Closer to the body.

You don’t need to follow it.

It surrounds you.


Listening

Best experienced with headphones.
