An evening of song, dream-talk and food with Daniel Godínez Nivón and special guests, including gaelic singer Deirdre Graham.
A lovely informal dinner where we shared lullabies, dreams, and discussed the quiet rituals that carry us from waking into sleep. Through listening, stories, and conversation, we explored lullabies and songs as more than children’s songs, as carriers of care, protection, memory, and connection.
Drawing on Daniel’s practice, personal dream stories and Gaelic tradition, we chatted about how songs hold landscapes, knowledge and histories, and how dreams continue these threads through the night.
Folk from Another thought book group came who had been reading a short text called Ancestral dreams by Sidarta Ribeiro ahead of the event. You may wish to read this too.
A warm, welcoming evening to sing the night in, listen deeply, and enjoy stories, songs, and dreams together.
