Editorial Reviews

"Dechen’s voice is musically enchanting, magically entrancing, and conveys the mystic calm and clarity of wisdom and compassion. Her pure voice cuts through the veil of mental static and succeeds in a direct sharing of their deep sense of immanent peace and bliss, from heart to heart. It conveys the Dharma in all its brilliant reality." – Robert Thurman, Professor of Buddhist Studies, Columbia University

"Dechen’s voice transmits beautifully a message that reaches every heart no matter what their nature. With her peace-prayers for the world she manages to help us discover our own source of love and compassion." – Paulo Coelho, author, The Alchemist

Product Description
The voice of Tibet! Dechen Shak-Dagsay is a Tibetan who has lived with her family in Switzerland since childhood. She is the eldest daughter of a Tibetan Lama, the Venerable Dagsay Tulku. Shi De is the follow-up to Shak-Dagsay’s much-acclaimed debut release, Dewa Che: Universal Healing Power of Tibetan Mantras. Shi De is Tibetan for "peace that brings happiness," something Shak-Dagsay feels this world needs more than ever before. With her enchantingly beautiful voice, she brings us a little closer to realizing this goal with these exquisite songs of peace. The music captured on Shi De conveys tranquility, love, and holiness to the listener, helping to uplift thought and encourage peace and happiness. Ideal for massage, meditation, and relaxation.

My title says it all. This music is breathtaking. It transports me to another place. The blend of voice & instruments is perfect.
I had this CD going in the background while talking on the phone with the tech department at a store. The person on the other end of the phone kept stopping talking mid-sentence and pausing. I couldn't figure out why..Finally she said, "What is that music you have playing?. It's so-o-o beautiful!"
I have to agree. I've never heard anything like it.

(VINE VOICE)   

This review is from: Shi De: A Call for World Peace (Audio CD)

Dechen's voice is very nice. The problem is that in the final mixing the guitar and other instruments is too much in the foreground. Dechen's voice seems to be covered over and often you cannot hear what she is saying. This is also hampered by the fact that her voice is often near to the same octave as the instrumentation. This should have been fixed in the mix but alas, what could have been a much better CD is left wanting. On a number of tracks she sings background for herself and often this is not mixed well with the foreground voice also being obscured. She is obviously very talented but my conclusion is that this work is technically overreaching and many of the vocals and instrumentation overly complex.

If you want to hear her in a much better work then start with Dewa Che
