Join us at Studio Bell, home of the National Music Centre, for the inaugural Synth Soundbath, a new monthly series exploring the intersection of wellness and music technology. Part immersive listening session, part interpretive learning experience, this program invites participants to experience sound as both a creative and sensory force. Held on the last Sunday of each month, each session spotlights a different synthesizer from NMC’s collection. Often associated with experimental music rather than wellness practices, synthesizers offer a unique lens into the science of sound and the body’s response to vibration, expanding how we listen, feel, and understand music’s role in well-being. Kicking off the series is the Korg MS-20, a seminal semi-modular analog synthesizer first released in 1978. Renowned for its raw, expressive character, it can produce everything from deep, resonant tones to unpredictable, textured soundscapes. Guests are encouraged to bring a yoga mat, blanket, or anything that helps them get comfortable as they settle in.
