Jayaraja stands by the microphone. There\u2019s an energy in the air; a tangible sense of togetherness. This is the third take. Herv\u00e9, our sound engineer, wipes a tear from his eye. Jayaraja takes a moment to calm the tremble in his voice. Ben signals to begin.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The cello leads us in, tentative and slow, played by Billy. Elisa tiptoes in behind on the violin with a pizzicato accompaniment, followed by Steve\u2019s sure-footed notes on the double bass. On a computer screen we are led through the dilapidated rooms of Alfoxton Park House. There\u2019s a certainty to the movement now, brought by Jake and Tara on guitar and keyboard, and the video footage takes us outside: mist rolls through trees, dew vapour rises in the pale morning sun. The faces of meditators appear on the screen, their eyes closed, expressions serene.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jayaraja begins: \u201cThere are in our existence, spots of time\u2026\u201d Words and music fill the room as the musicians play to the moving images, carrying Jayaraja\u2019s reading of Wordsworth\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Prelude<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> like a boat on a gentle sea. Everyone is holding time together, playing for those meditators, for those hills and trees, pouring their love and affection into the music.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And I just sit and listen to the unfolding magic, taking a moment to appreciate the sublime (slightly nerve-wracking) experience of putting my film in the hands of these gifted experts for them to give it the final breath of life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We are all here because of the way our lives have been touched by Alfoxton, each in our own way. It\u2019s a cold, grey day in February 2022. The musicians have come to give their time and skill out of the sheer goodness of their hearts \u2013 for we can\u2019t afford to pay them \u2013 to add the final elements to the documentary film which we all hope will inspire others and bring the Alfoxton story to life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For one long weekend we have taken over the famous oak-panelled room of the main house, where we like to think Coleridge gave his first reading of his seminal poem <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.poetryfoundation.org\/poems\/43997\/the-rime-of-the-ancient-mariner-text-of-1834\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Rime of the Ancient Mariner<\/span><\/i><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It\u2019s a jungle gym of microphone stands and cables, instruments and tea cups, coats and cushions, pens and paper. This is our play den for the weekend, our sacred space of musical storytelling.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ben, a member of the Alfoxton community and the musical director for <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Renovating Virtue<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, steers us through the process. \u201cIt\u2019s a bit like cooking,\u201d he tells me as we recall the experience together, one year later. He and I had talked before the weekend about how to manage my input during the recording. I needed to make sure the music was going in the right direction for the film, but it was important that the musicians always had a sense of creative freedom.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0\u201cEach piece of music was like making a meal,\u201d he muses over the phone. \u201cIt\u2019s hard to explain something while you\u2019re in the midst of creating it. The meal has to be eaten by someone eventually, but at what point do you let them have a taste and say what they think?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If I came in at the wrong time with feedback, it could disrupt the sensitive process. \u201cBecause the music was improv-based, the musicians were really bringing themselves into it,\u201d Ben explains. \u201cHowever they feel in the moment, that\u2019s what goes into the music. My job was to make sure the musicians had good rapport with each other, and to hold a space in which it was okay to experiment and make mistakes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our general process was something like this: we would all watch the film scene together a couple of times. Ben would then introduce whatever musical ideas he and I had agreed upon as starting points, and with the right amount of guidance from him, the musicians would play with the ideas, adding their own. Eventually, the piece grew organically into something ready to record.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I had already told Ben beforehand what I wanted each scene in the film to feel like; what its underlying sentiment was. He then communicated this to the group. It was important to me that the film should capture something of the magic of Alfoxton; that ineffable spirit, the myth and mystery. I also wanted the soundtrack to express the affection I feel in my heart for the people of Alfoxton. A musical embrace, if you like.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the music-making began, I did my best to be conscious and skilful with my feedback. Of course, that is easier said than done &#8211; as is often the case when collaborating with other artists. For me however, this is the beauty of filmmaking. The whole experience presented an excellent context for mindfulness practice: patience, not holding too tightly to ideas, giving in to the natural flow of things. Listening with full attention, staying in touch with myself, kind and timely speech.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we progressed through the weekend, our sense of unity deepened. Each piece was its own creature. For some, we made use of \u2018graphic scores\u2019 \u2013 a visual way of communicating musical ideas without using traditional notation. Ben would plot the timeline of the piece on a large sheet of paper, and then add simple notes and symbols to signify changes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For other pieces, it was even simpler. With the kitten scene, for example, each musician took it in turns to improvise their own response to the footage while watching. We then agreed on our favourite response and built from there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI wanted the music to be valuable in its own right as music, not just background noodling,\u201d Ben recalls. We achieved this through the use of different time signatures and modes. One of the pieces uses the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">pelog<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> scale &#8211; a pentatonic scale used in traditional Javanese gamelan music, and a favourite of Ben\u2019s.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The weekend drew to a close. With all the intensity of spiritual and creative practice, it was important to let loose. On the last night we did just that by putting on a \u20185Rhythms\u2019-style dance night for the community, with live music from the musicians. It was a special night.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, over a year later, much progress has been made with the renovation of Alfoxton Park &#8211; with plenty yet to do &#8211; and we continue to change and grow as a community. I find the mind itself is like a house, with countless rooms in varying states of repair. Some rooms are well-lived in; comfortable, familiar. Others have become long forgotten corners of the infinite estate of the imagination; dusty, dark and cold. There is work to be done, and in meditation each morning we set aside our trivial occupations in order to tend to and nourish ourselves, performing invisible repairs and refurbishments. We strive on to make this house of the mind one in which we can live happily, in harmony with others. A warm and welcoming place of potential, learning and growth. Such are our hopes for Alfoxton.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We nail it with that third take. As the music reaches its climax, Jayaraja celebrates the wonders of dawn breaking over the Quantocks in the words of Wordsworth. Together we pass over the bridge and return to the main chord sequence, hearts full of love and purpose, in gratitude to Alfoxton and each other.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ah! need I say, dear Friend! that to the brim<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My heart was full; I made no vows, but vows<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Were then made for me; bond unknown to me<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Was given, that I should be, else sinning greatly,<br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A dedicated Spirit.
