About the Artist

Yashu, a talented musician from Barcelona, Spain, has played flute professionally for over twenty years. She studied classical music with Salvador Gratacos, 1st flautist of the Ciutat de Barcelona Orchestra. In the early 1970's, she started her professional career playing with Lluis Llach for three years. She played with Montllor and collaborated in several recordings and performances with other singers within the 'Canco' movement, like Maria del Mar Bonet and Ramon Muntaner. Between 1975 and 1983, she accompanied avant-garde musicians such as Mirasol Colores, Toti Soler, Ovidi Montllor and Jordi Sabates all around Europe. In 1978, Yashu traveled to India and met Osho, who changed her musical conception and she began composing meditative music, mixing Oriental and Occidental styles. She played during satsangs and meditations and became head of the music department in Osho's Commune, in Pune. Since then she collaborated in many recordings with musicians from all over the world in the area of Meditation and World Music. Her debut album, 'Intuition' was released in 1993, in India. In 1996, she recorded 'In Silence', at Nazca Music in Holland. Her latest album, 'Oasis', was released in October, 1998.

Product Description

Yashu's music, influenced by classical Indian traditions, is beautifully played on silver and bamboo flute, tabla, santoor, and tanpura. 'In Silence' features nine meditative compositions with an intriguing musical depth, inviting the listener to move into a space of silence where meditation and inner healing easily occur. She is accompanied by Manish, a young talented Indian tabla player who has studied with the famous tabla master Ustad All Rakha, the father of Ustad Zakir Hussain, and is currently studying with Ustad Kausar-Ali, a master from Benares. Nirupa also accompanies Yashu on tanpura, tamburi and vocals.
