Sharing a live recording of a music set that was created for an evening exploring the Papyrus of Ani. www.SoundCloud.com/bakharosami/the-temple-of-ani-live-set
Rather than approaching it as a concert, I approached it as a temple.
The set follows the architecture of an ancient Egyptian temple—not musically, but experientially.
As you move through it, you symbolically walk through four spaces:
OUTER COURT
You arrive carrying the noise of the day, your thoughts, expectations, memories, plans. This is the world outside.
HYPOSTYLE HALL
The music becomes spacious and contemplative. In the temples this was a place of purification. Let this be a moment to return to your breath and allow the mind to settle into the present.
HOLY
The rhythm begins.
This is the place of offering.
Your offering doesn’t need to be ceremonial—it can simply be your full presence. Dance. Write. Paint. Sit quietly. Close your eyes. Whatever arises naturally, let it become your offering.
HOLY OF HOLIES
The final movement.
The pulse softens.
The music becomes heavier, slower, almost architectural.
If you’ve walked with intention, perhaps this becomes a place of stillness, clarity, or simply deep listening.
The final piece is Black Moon, from our album The Book Of.
May it receive you gently.
I wish you a beautiful journey.
