YASHU & HARIDA This music, absolutely free, absolutely tensionless, flows into your home as a wide slow river its crystal water sparks with spangles of reflected rays of rising sun. This is a music of calm and peace, melodies of slow awakening. You open your eyes and see, that morning light gradually displays things in your room, and suddenly you can feel fragrance of lilac bush, which silhouette weaves beyond the lightening window because of puff of delicate wind. And you can hear quiet breath of your beloved lying near you, and it is so pleasant to feel warmth of her body. At such moments of joy and bliss, when night is gone, but day with its problems and worries is not here yet, you can feel the very center of your being. You can go deep into its unknown space and aware that you're a blissful and divine creature in this completely non-serious world. Yashu and Harida allow us to be in joy and peace and to understand suddenly, that all the problems are vain, and there is no reason for trouble at all. The title of the album comes from the Sanskrit word meaning the state of calm and silence. Flutist Yashu, born in Spain, and percussionist Harida from Chile are together for more than 25 years. Their career started with performances of various Latin and avant-garde music. In 1978 they went to India, where they practiced meditation they brought from India deep love to Indian music. All these is reflected in their creative work, where East and West are blended and united. It's interesting that the word " shanti" has become common for Yashu and Harida when one of them got rattled or upset, they spoke " Shanti-Shanti" , meaning " don't worry" , " relax" , " feel your inner center" . Those words became the title of the new project by Yashu and Harida, which can be defined by right as an album-meditation. It was conceived when the musicians performed at the courses of massage and healing. " Shanti-Shanti" is a perfect music for rest and relaxation, it is light and penetrated by joy. " Shanti-Shanti" is the fourth album recorded by Yashu and Harida in Nazca Music. Their music makes life lighter, with that music it is easier to be in an alter state, when love and sunshine are natural, when the words are needless, when you don't have to pretend, to hide something from yourself and others, when your whole husk falls down and only You remain… A cosmic feeling… An infinite bliss...
