“music is the future medicine of humanity” – edgar cayce
purpose
The Sound & Music, Visual and Performing Arts discipline at NewEarth University’s School of The Living Arts explores a vast language of the heart by weaving the benefits of sound science, ancient wisdom-knowledge and modern-day transformative applications of all the arts – sound, music, visual and performing arts of every genre.
Our talented faculty, associated fellows, staff and affiliates research, investigate, and creatively explore new ways of being to harmonically host a whole-system perspective of multi-faceted art-forms. Through our conscious emphasis on holistic methodology we thrive on developing and supporting interdisciplinary presentations from all cultures, honoring the world’s rich diversity through a kaleidoscopic lens of Oneness.
Primordial sound and ancient sound technology, shamanic communication with the natural world, and music of all traditions are investigated, such as the powerful practices of the adepts of ancient Egypt, and the Pythagorean concept of the Music of the Spheres, to name a few. Historical perspectives of classic art blend with postmodern nuances of unique artistic works like grassroots graffiti and street art…to Tibetan sand mandalas, i.e., all envisaged as Soul expressions.
Artists – of all ages from all genres – are invited to express themselves creatively through this disciple at our School of The Living Arts.

“…man is a musical being. His origin is in the spoken Word. By sound was he sustained and by music he evolved. One day he will recognize music as a vital factor in the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual evolution of the whole human race.” – Corinne Heline (1882-1975)
