Wondrous Horse // (S. Borrelli & V. Rossetto)

About Me

Wondrous Horse is the avant-folk project of the american vanessa rossetto aka niwi and the italian salvatore borrelli aka harps of fuchsia kalmia & (etre).

"Cavallo meraviglioso" is on Fire Museum Records.

When as before the Great King of Glory, to test that wondrous Horse, mounted on to it early in the morning, it passed over along the broad earth to its very ocean boundary, and then returned again, in time for the morning meal, to the royal city of Kusvat.

-Maha-Sudassana Sutta, Legend of the Great King of Glory
