One should chant the holy name of the Lord in a humble state of mind, thinking oneself lower than the straw in the street; one should be more tolerant than a tree, devoid of all sense of false prestige and should be ready to offer all respect to others.
In such a state of mind one can chant the holy name of the Lord constantly.
~ Sri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu
Kirtan is the ecstatic singing of the names of God, and is an important part of the bhakti practice. Keith Borden's melodies are infectious and musically unique, and an evening with Soul Sangha is part kirtan, part down-home revival.
Keith, who has performed traditional and contemporary opera repertoire, modern song cycles, and avant-garde neo-classical vocal music, assembles a group of top-notch performers for each kirtan. Collaborators include bassists John Christensen (WI), Nick Moran (WI), Shelley Nicole (NYC) and Janko Hanushevsky (GER); percussionists Paul Westfahl (WI), Paddy Cassidy (WI), Ralf Wilden (GER), Ravish Momin (NYC), and Dan Kennedy (SF), singers Astrud Castillo (SF), Brima Jah (SF) and Joy Radish (NYC), and violinists Linda Binder (WI), Liz Huntly (GER) and Shaina Evoniuk (SF). Keith Borden + Soul Sangha create a dynamic musical landscape that is sure to have you on your feet and dancing.
