Visionary & Artistic Director

Marlia

Marlia Cœur is a vocal activator, sound healer, and multi-instrumentalist with over two decades of performance and facilitation across four continents. She is the founder of Resound Academy — an online school for vocal activation, Nāda Yoga, and sacred sound education — and the creator of Biosonic Studio Ubud, Bali's first vibroacoustic brainwave entrainment studio, now expanding internationally. A composer, multi-instrumentalist, and ceremonial facilitator, Marlia has delivered 500+ workshops and performances worldwide, trained under Indian classical and Sufi masters, and carries sacred oral traditions from indigenous lineages. She leads AKOYA Choir in Cypriot folk repertoire and weaves her original compositions from handpan, oud, guitar, flute, and voice into ceremonies that dissolve the boundary between performer and listener. The Bali Handpan Festival is her invitation to bring this world together — in one place, under one sky, in the spirit of sacred sound.

Kolos co-built the Hungarian Handpan & World Music Gathering (HUG Festival) and has been a MAG Instruments ambassador since 2022. A multi-instrumentalist, composer, and producer, he is the logistical backbone that makes the vision real.
