About the Project
Our Irish-Prussian collaboration combines poetry, music, and ambient folk to create a soul-stirring experience that resonates with the essence of our beings.
Our goal is to touch hearts, evoke emotions, and inspire through our unique blend of poetry and music, delivered harmoniously by our choir in ethereal settings.
This project originated from the deep passion for poetry and music shared by Irish and Prussian artists, resulting in a powerful cultural exchange with a lasting impact on our audiences.
Defining us...
Ēirikura is a musical multi-faceted venture, inspired by the coming of spring, in Prussian & Irish ancient lands. The forces of nature are contemplated, from the germination of existence, through the joys of innocent youth and fresh love that is everlasting, to the inevitable facing of decay & cessation, but with the promise of rebirth & resurrection through the never-ending cycle of nature. Using a phantasmagoria of radiant images of natural growth and decline, Ēirikura gently guides the listener to their spiritual gate, eventually to glide in a dreamlike state to higher realms. The music is created using instruments: guitars, strings (violin, viola, cello), grand piano, flute, oboe, trumpet, drums, to others such as bandura, zither, bowed psaltery, musical saw &various percussions. Eclectic Genres: neo-folk, neo-classical to ambient and experimental. Featuring a girls’ choir, solo singing, poetic recitals. ‘Reflection of a Higher Realm’ by Ēirikura is a unique auditory pleasure.
Approach
We conducted in-depth research on our interests, similarities and connections and audience preferences to inform our approach.
We made remarkable progress in fusing poetry and music seamlessly, captivating our target audience and receiving positive feedback.
Challenges faced include balancing poetic integrity with musical elements, and ensuring the final product resonates with diverse listeners.
Summary
In this initial phase, we brainstorm ideas, select themes, and outline the overall vision for our poetry music project.
During this stage, we write and refine the poetic verses, craft the musical compositions, and ensure they complement each other seamlessly.
Here, we work closely with poets, musicians, producers, and other creatives to bring our poetry music project to life collaboratively.
In this stage, we record vocals, instrumentals, mix the tracks, and add final touches to create a polished and professional sound.
Finally, we develop a comprehensive promotion strategy, including social media campaigns, music video production, and live performances to reach our audience.
