Ridvan celebrates Baha’u’llah’s time in 1863 in the garden of Ridvan in Baghdad when He publicly declared His station as a Manifestation of God. The Ridvan Festival is 12 days long and is also the time of year when Baha’is elect their governing bodies.
“Angels of Fire and Snow” is a track from Projection, Sinnober’s latest album. Sinnober is the musical partnership of Sebastian and Natalie Brice and this song’s title was inspired by the Baha’i Writings after Natalie attended a study session and workshop about life after death. Sebastian described the song with these words:
“Death isn’t something we openly embrace in Western culture, yet it is such a vital part of our human experience. This song is about glimpsing the mystical in the everyday. It’s also about the mind-made limitations we place on ourselves and how there’s often a sense of holding back and waiting for the right moment, when really what we need to do is jump in.”
Projection is available to stream/buy from all the major outlets via this link: song.link/projection You can also get CD’s, signed copies and merchandise via Bandcamp: www.sinnober.bandcamp.com.
