THE POWER OF RHYTHM

Reinhard Flatischler Podcast

ÜBER MEIN NEUES PROJEKT

In meinem Podcast POWER OF RHYTHM möchte ich dich dazu inspirieren, die grundlegende Kraft des Lebens zu erforschen und zu erleben. Und das als Möglichkeit des Wachstums zu entdecken. Dafür lade ich eine unglaubliche Vielfalt an Gästen ein – von Neurowissenschaftlern, über Chronobiologen bis zu Weltklasse-Interpreten und Trendsetter in der rhythmischen Musik. Wir alle werden dir dadurch verschiedene Perspektiven auf eine Sache geben, die uns alle verbindet – RHYTHMUS.

POWER OF RHYTHM ist ein Musik-Podcast, in dem du eine Fülle verschiedener Musik- und Rhythmusbeispiele hören kannst. Wahrscheinlich wirst du diese Vielfalt nirgendwo anders finden können: alte koreanische Kut-Zeremonien, Comparsas und Musik vom Karneval in Kuba 1976, tiefe Techno- und Percussion-Performances einiger der besten Musiker unserer Zeit.

Ich lade dich ein, mich auf dieser Reise zu begleiten.

EPISODE #51: EVELYN GLENNIE – LISTENING BY HEART

EPISODE #51: EVELYN GLENNIE – LISTENING BY HEART

Listening is so much broader than just music. But maybe music is a perfect way to learn that ability (Especially the way my today’s guest listens). Evelyn Glennie is a multiple Grammy award winner, she is a Ted Talk speaker and she has been given more than 100 awards internationally. But this is just the icing on the cake. The real thing is that she lost her hearing when she was about eight, and instead of quitting music, she embarked on a career that brings a new paradigm of listening to the world.

  2. Lieber Reinhard,
    ich habe mich sehr über deine Empowerment Episode in Deutsch gefreut.
    Mein Englisch ist leider nicht gut genug um alles zu verstehen.
    Ich teile deine Meinung und deine Einstellung zu dieser herausfordernden Zeit. Es wird nach Corona nicht mehr so sein wie davor und ich glaube, das ist auch gut so.
    Wie oft hat man den Satz gehört „das kann doch nicht immer so weiter gehen, da muss doch mal was kommen“.
    Jetzt ist es da – eine große Chance!!! Sicherlich wird es viel Mühe kosten und auch viel Unterstützung. Ich glaube an das Potential der Menschen, vor allem auch der jungen Menschen und will sie weiterhin – so wie du auch – auf ihrem Weg unterstützen, sich zu trauen und zu vertrauen auf ein gutes achtsames und respektvolles Miteinander.
    Mögen alle Lebewesen glücklich sein.
    Es grüßt dich herzlich
    Regina

        großartig, ich bin dir wieder einmal sehr, sehr dankbar, diesmal für deine wirklich spannenden Podcasts!
        Deine Gedanken zum Jahreswechsel sind ebenso hilfreich wie ermutigend. Es gibt derzeit so viele Zeichen der Hoffnung und der Verbundenheit, wir müssen nur hinschauen. Dazu gehört übrigens auch die Antrittsrede des neuen bolivianischen Vizepräsidenten. Ich bin gespannt, wann und in welchem europäischen Parlament wir ähnliche Worte hören werden.
