There’s hardly a better way to learn about yourself than having an outsider’s viewpoint on things you may consider usual or even common. Here’s a good example of that.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I’ve got a letter from Des Coulam today. Let me remind you that Des is running a beautiful blog called Soundlandscapes<\/a>. He is an Englishman living in Paris and he shares great knowledge and passion for Paris life, and also as an experienced recordist – street sounds in particular. If you have an interest in any of these do visit his blog and you won’t be dissapointed.<\/p>\n

Des recorded a marriage ceremony lately, but it wasn’t an ordinary one… Or was it? A wedding conducted in the pretty usual way (for many), an Orthodox church ceremony – held by the Orthodox priest and a choir with all the rituals normally present. It was a Franco-Russian wedding though, the bride came from Russia and the groom was French.<\/p>\nhttps:\/\/www.oontz.ru\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/Eglise_Saint-Medard-Benediction_in_Russian.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n

\"\"\/<\/p>\n

This is the point when the whole story begins to sound different. The Orthodox ceremony thousands miles away from Russia, at the 15th century church of Saint-Medard in Paris, conducted in Russian and French, partially recorded, and then sent to Russia – what a journey! It doesn’t sound new or different now but it certainly draws attention to the hidden beauty of this sound and this ceremony, once again.<\/p>\n

It is my pleasure to invite you to Des Coulam’ Soundscapes for more sounds from that wedding (which is a glorious organ recording<\/a> actually) and from Paris as well. Thank you Des and tchin tchin for Anastasia and Mikael!<\/p>\n
