"The singers shape their song into a repeated chant that loops in on itself in darkened circles. Then, within a single drawn breath, ahhhhhhh, the picture changes, or maybe it simply changes into a picture with everyone in their cherished role. Then, the song of the singers on that mound is pulsed through the crowd on everyone's voice and tongue, and it becomes the one song of that moment no longer owned or even made by those 5 men singing in the center, not followed or learned by the townspeople. Suddenly, on that single in-drawn AHHHHHHH, comes the pleasure and fullness of a task needing to be done and a song waiting to be sung. This is how singing really works: you find yourself humming the song of a stranger who passes you in the warm evening air and you take the melody in your arms and run away!" -- David Moss.
