Transpersonal Music

Original title:

Música transpersonal. Una cartografía holística del arte, la ciencia y el misticismo

About the book:

Transpersonal Music

Basing itself on the systemic conception of reality, the interdependence of physical, biological, psychological, social and cultural phenomena, Transpersonal Music unfolds a fascinating theory of the unified creative field: artistic, scientific and mystical elements blended in a permanent-dynamic fusion. .

Making reference to territories as diverse as Taoism, the Upanishads or the new holonomic science, the famous musicologist Egberto Gismonti tells of his esoteric experiences with the Amazonian Indians, his transpersonal experiences with the music of Webern, his journeys to India, his encounters with ancient African rituals, and  his states of consciousness in the creative act. Including a space dedicated to health workers, psychotherapists and educators, Carlos D. Fregtman amplifies, develops and multiplies these narrations, ex-plicating the im-plicate (transpersonal) universe of music and the act of creation.
