Profile Information
- About me:
- Anthar Kharana, is a composer and multi-instrumentalist born in a small town called Ocana in the North of Colombia and years later he moved to Bogota. He grew up in a musical family and his first link with music was at the age of nine. He has been involved in many musical projects and bands, offering him a wide vision about different ways of putting together sounds and intentions, feelings and thoughts. Starting with rough punk in his early years as a result of the oppressive political situation in Colombia, to then begin training himself as a counter-tenor (highest male voice’s pitch in opera) afterwards, giving him the ability to increase his voice range and to reach high pitches that sounds like female voice.
After years of practice he developed the complex technique of Throat Singing, including Khoomii from Mongolia also known as Polyphonic Voice, and other overtone styles incluiding western harmonics which made an important step whilst working with Vibrational Sound Healing. As part of that process, together with his passion for different ancient cultures, he started to investigate about the power of sound and how it generates changes in many different ways and levels of conciousness.
Anthar is also an educator and has been touring the UK facilitating Traditional Colombian drumming and Tribal Voice workshops in different festivals and schools. He teaches and shares the roots of Colombian traditions and rhythms of the Indigenous people who were living (and still) on the Carribbean Coast of Colombia and got mixed with African slaves brought with the Spanish colony at the end of the 16th century.

Very deep connections there. hope to meet one day and if you come to South Africa contact us.

thank you for adding me as a friend and for your great music! I'm happy to meet you here... and there on my Space, too.
Your name is a very special one, the anthakarana... I know this word from the theosophic literature (antara means 'between') and Antares (the anti Ares/Mars) as Alpha Scorpii is in the heart position of the zodiac sign Scorpio.
May your work and music be blessed and give salvation to mankind,
Sarvamangalam!

thank you for comment. may be you hit the nail on the head. those pieces are very slowly therefore time stretching toys. (i'm attracted by gradualness, not only in music. it's my island.) thank you for your music. makes me feel your country. greetings from far.
