Joscelyn Godwin

Referência literária/esotérica, “Harmonies Of Heaven And Earth”, de Joscelyn Godwin, citada em “Spiritchaser” (1996):

“In most musical instruments the resonator is made of wood while the actual sound generator is of animal origin. In cultures where music is still used as a magical force, the making of an instrument always involves the sacrifice of a living being. That being’s soul then becomes part of the instrument and in the tones that come forth, the ‘singing dead’, who are ever present with us, make themselves heard“.
