Ceremonial Concert (evening)
Praful is a captivating multi-instrumental artist, vocalist, and live looping maestro of a New Era. His distinctive style is a crossover and live channeling of ethnic/traditional and modern styles, drawing inspiration from indigenous folk songs, sacred chants, South-American & European styles, Indian ragas, shamanic trance, Jazz and world electronic music. The essence of his music emanates from the heart, a sincere expression of gratitude towards the mystery and sacredness of life on Earth, serving as a powerful call for celebration.
Praful’s 13 solo albums garnered international success, including #1-US-radio-hits and top 10 Billboard notations. Using his warm, melodic voice and a divers array of instruments such as Indian Bamboo Flutes, Ukulele, Saxophone, and more, he crafts a live, intricate sonic tapestry that invites listeners on an enchanting journey, inspiring them to open up, sing and sometimes dance.
Praful will present his recently released album Sun on your Wings, a collection of positive, heartwarming songs that draw inspiration from the beauty of nature and the profound connections we share as humans.
The album’s title carries a poignant message directly from indigenous grandmothers, urging us in these changing times to be gentler on ourselves, and to embrace a new era of yin, more feminine living. Praful’s music resonates with the depths of our souls – it is medicine for the heart.
“Look up. A breeze is stirring. Feel the sun on your wings.”
The Sacred Cacao Concert will be held in the evening (see below for more practical information).

🌬️✨ Embark on a transformative journey into the Pure Heart:
Experience the profound synergy of breath, air, and sacred cacao as they work miracles to purify, connect with our hearts, and elevate our beings. In this workshop, we will explore the depths of conscious breathing, effortlessly transcending into a space of NoMind. Through this practice, we cleanse and unblock energies, gaining clarity and vision about our true essence and life’s path.
🍫 Ceremonial Cacao, the Divine Medicine:
Enhancing our inner voyage is the ceremonial cacao, known as the divine medicine of the Incas. As we partake in its sacred essence, we establish immediate contact with the universal heart and tap into the profound wisdom of nature. All intentions are welcomed – whether you seek to be seen, uplifted or dissolved, this sacred combination will guide you.

🥁 Bring Your Instrument, Use Your Voice:
Be an active participant in your transformation. Bring an instrument, f.i. a drum, and be prepared to use your voice to sing from the bottom of your heart.
