This channel is dedicated to the music and sound, which transcends the boundaries of trivial listening. Its title ORPHOLOGIST refers to Orpheus, ancient Greek poet, musician and a prophet. The beasts were charmed with his singing and stopped hunting each other. Korkyt, the creator of music and the first shaman in Kazakh mythology, is Orpheus of Central Asia. Väinämöinen of the Finn's epic Kalevala is another Orpheus' hypostasis. We do research of the Orphic phenomena in sound and music in various traditions. Here you will find the material that gives you a potential to understand timeless magic of music. Most of the videos are made by us or our friends during field research and realizing of projects and festivals. Some are re-posted from trustworthy sources. Enjoy and learn.
