Inner World Music

with Kailash Kokopelli

"Spirit of the wind,
heartbeat of the earth,
voice of all that is sacred, wild and free...

Kailash brings a message of hope
from the stars into the stones
to awaken the light
within the deepest depth of our beings.
In the pure language of silence given sound
he calls us to remember
the sacredness within us and of all life."

In this occasion, as an errant gypsy, he comes to share his stories. Stories that invite us to laugh, others to thinking... With the humor like tool we will be reflected by this human idiocy that so often characterizes us. This way, this masquerade of mas of three meters of height, he will open his world of dreams and will deliver us his color.
