Mother’s Hope

If you let it, Venice will seduce you and she gives up her magic in unexpected ways.


If you let it, Venice will seduce you and she gives up her magic in unexpected ways. Strolling through the Venetian Calle, as the summer light was starting to fade, we heard a mystical sound floating through the air that drew us closer. In a small square we saw Zu, a handsome thin-bearded Italian sitting with a Handpan in his lap, filling the air with beautiful music as the bustle of tourists shuffled by. Ronan and I got lost in the music and I knew he should be a part of Project Electrico. -Kathleen

Hang Drum Player in Venice, Italy

We are in Venice, Italy, tracking with Ronan Chris Murphy for my new record, ELECTRICO, and an Italian artist from Treviso, Andrea Gorgi Zuin. Everyone calls him ZU. He plays a Hang (hang drum) tuned at A=432 Hz, not the arbitrary A=440 that we know of in Western pop music today. A=432 Hz is known to be the natural sound of the earth, a frequency that vibrates more naturally in nature, and has healing, energetic powers.
