Preliminary program
(subject to change)

The Meikirch Cultural Commission and Ulrico cordially invite you and look forward to an inspiring concert: Sunday, April 23, 5:00 PM, Aula Schulhaus Gassacker, 3045 Meikirch, Switzerland

Uli Sacchet, Ulrico among musicians and composers, has been focusing his attention and energy fully on harmony and resonance for years. Results of this are his music and his extensive catalog of tonalities and sound samples on the Tonalibus website. Harmony to him is how well something expresses the inexpressible and can touch and uplift the heart.

An overabundance of information and stimulation characterizes our time and fuels needs for calm, peace, freedom, and trust. Ulrico’s endeavor is to bring healing music and harmony into the world — for focusing, relaxation, and regeneration.

Chairs as well as yoga mats will be provided.

At the beginning, Ulrico will briefly present the concept of the harmonic pivot.

Admission free, donation basket

Expansion of the catalogue of tonalities and the glossary

The expansion of the catalogue of anchored tonalities, announced in the January 2023 Tonalibus update, is now complete in all details. Further, the Tonalibus glossary expanded to include corresponding new and several basic terms, including miracle of nature, anchor realization shift, harmonic realization shift, inversion, and mirror shift pattern.

Conclusion with sacred geometry and Platonic solids

“Sacred geometry is an instrument of dialogue between man and God, permitting us to find unity inside nature’s diversity. It provides complete understanding and experience to consciously shape our future and accelerate the ascension process. It shows us how to open our hearts and evolve in consciousness through geometric models.”
