Nascimento
Nascer é parte fundamental de todos os processos. Sonhamos muitos sonhos, planejamos muitos projetos. Contudo, e quando eles não chegam a sua conclusão? Ou não saem como vislumbramos?
Isso não significa o fim, nem um final. Apenas um novo recomeço, um novo nascimento, uma nova gestação dos sonhos.
A frustração é parte da experiência humana, e a dor também faz parte do processo de curamento.
Curar muitas vezes dói. Mas a dor não dura pra sempre.
Para onde teus olhos te levam, quando você precisa olhar pra dentro?
Essa é a faixa "Nascimento" do Jonathan Ferr que faz parte do álbum "A Cura".
Amor
Unity is strength, unity is strength.
The absence of deep affectionate relationships brought us closer to an emptiness that prevents us from following the determinations chosen by our inner “I”, the spirit.
Love is infinite. It is multiple and is expressed in sincerity.
When two bodies meet in search of the spirit of intimacy, everything connects, manifesting everything that is, everything that ever was, everything that will always be.
Sex, beyond the physical, is an astral, spiritual, ancestral connection.
It is one of the ways of nurturing this sensitive, warm and welcoming space called love.
Chuva
A chuva vem pra lavar. Lavar aquilo que já acabou, as folhas secas que acumulam nos nossos jardins.
Levar embora aquilo que não serve mais.
A energia da chuva tem a mesma força da energia vital. É o inevitável, o incontrolável, é a força bruta e abundante , a princípio desconexa que aos poucos encontra caminhos.
É a força que desperta o animal de poder que existe em cada um de nós.
A força mística das águas do céu, que nos permitem acessar nossas forças místicas internas, levar embora aquilo que já secou, e nos conectar aos propósitos mais escondidos.
Tem chovido aí dentro?
Essa é a faixa "Chuva" do Jonathan Ferr que faz parte do álbum "A Cura".
Felicidade
The smile of someone you love. A dance to the sound of your favorite music. The beautiful blue of the autumn sky.
The bright sun that illuminates and burns the skin. What nourishes our happiness?
Some philosophers claim that Happiness is a state of mind, and the circumstances don't matter, because happiness is conjugated in the verb to be.
Others claim that happiness is ephemeral and not fixed moments.
To be happy or to be happy?
Different facets of the same feeling within the experience of existing.
What makes you happy?
What makes you happy?
This is the track "Felicidade" by Jonathan Ferr that is part of the album "A Cura".
Choro
Living is a carousel of emotions.
Being open to experiencing each one of them, when manifested, is also bringing to light what is deepest in our consciousness.
Mourning, silence, introspection are all there, in a sensitive emotional space, ready to be nourished by new experiences.
Does the scar serve to remind you that you were injured, or to remind you that you were healed?
This is the track "Choro" by Jonathan Ferr that is part of the album "A Cura".
Sensível feat Jacques Morelenbaum
Healing cannot be seen with the natural eye. It's like a morning that rises silently, pushing the dawn little by little, subtly with its rays of sunlight until the day can happen.
Healing is felt sensitively and invisibly, in the light of everyday life. From the daily rituals that are repeated, repeated and repeated. Until such time as healing is felt.
What cure are you sensitive to right now?
This is the track "Sensível" by Jonathan Ferr that is part of the album "A Cura".
Sino da Igrejinha
Exu is the lord of gates and paths. His archetype, brings the party, Eros, the profane, the spiritual.
His strength walks in disorder, which is disordered to order.
But his main ritual is love.
The meeting of two spirits that are ready to give themselves beyond the body. Two people in search of the spirit of intimacy.
When a path opens, do you allow yourself to walk?
This is the track "Sino da Igrejinha" by Jonathan Ferr that is part of the album "A Cura".
Caminho feat Viviane Mosé
What cures? Life.
Life is healing itself.
The experiences we go through, the uniqueness of each hour, the virginity of the days that are born.
And what is healing if not the process of living, of experiencing existence in its macro and micro potencies, in unique macro and micro experiences.
In the ephemeral and exclusive daily life of each one.
In the truths found in the look that is yours alone.
In the story that belongs to no one but you and your path.
Healing is happening now.
Healing is happening right now.
Hope
O pianista Jonathan Ferr apresenta seu novo single, batizado de “Esperança“, o lançamento sai pelo selo slap, da Som Livre, e oferece o que Ferr sabe fazer de melhor: uma mistura primorosa de musicalidade, referências a elementos das religiões de matriz africana, reflexão sobre questões sociais e democratização do jazz, tudo isso embalado em sua estética afrofuturista. Além de ser a primeira track de piano solo do artista, “Esperança” traz ainda um poema declamado pela voz potente de Serjão Loroza.
Saturno - Making Of
Making Of of the movie SATURN by Jonathan Ferr.
Saturno
Who knows Time? What do we know about him? Except what we know from our own history and the history of those who preceded us. Love, affection, ancestry, birth and death. Everything is connected in space-time,
in our psyche, in our emotions and in our existence. We keep in us, very old secrets that precede our birth.
