St. FredSaint Fred produces quiet, contemplative music designed to ease the process of thinking. The Priest and four Brothers are arranged in a pentagon with the Initiate in the center facing the Priest. The Initiate must be totally naked, to demonstrate that he is truly a human being, and not something else in disguise, like a cabbage or something. All persons in the audience and the pentagon, excepting the Priest, assume a squatting position and return to a standing position. This is repeated four more times. This dance is symbolic of humility. Hollow MusicThe Rite of Slem BuTracks can be pre-heard at GarageBand.com |
