The Essence - Music CD - Deva Premal

This is a NEW CD (Sealed in plastic Shrink wrap)

Deva Premal's gorgeous voice, more assured than ever before is moving and soothing.
Featuring the definitive version of the Gayatri Mantra, this best-selling album is filled with sumptuous renditions of ancient mantras.
The Gayatri Mantra, the oldest mantra known to mankind is the centerpiece for this truly meditative album.
"The high chanteuse of chant, Deva Premal, is a pillar of originality in the grand garden of Indian music. You might say she's to Sanskrit Mantras what Enya is to Celtic music. Her smooth soulful voice, which resides in the lower octaves, haunts atmospheric, lightly rhythmic, etherial soundscapes skillfully crafted by her partner Miten. Together they take listeners on a journey into the depths of the soul that doesn't forget to stop at the heart. The music's easy on the ears, spiritually provocative and contains enough mass appeal to make even the yoga-phobic stir." Music Design In Review.
Deva Premal's debut album 'The Essence' has become a best-seller in Europe and the USA and is one of the most popular mantra albums in the New Age World. "Having used this CD for dance, movement and inspiration at a recent retreat in Maui, I can only tell you that the response was 110 % overwhelming. Sensual rhythms, which are compelling and seemingly come from the inside out, draw the listener in layer by layer. Above all I am touched by the combination of strength, purity, and delicateness I hear in Deva Premal's voice. Highly recommended." -(Heartbeat, USA)
