Deva Premal & Miten. Global, spiritual musicians
Deva Premal (Germany) and Miten (UK) have travelled constantly for the last ten years - playing concerts and voice workshops in over 20 countries: a continual out-pouring of mantra and song...all within the realm of sacred silence.
Their life's work is to create spaces around the planet where the silence that follows the mantra is clearly tangible. They share the healing power of the voice, and the bliss that it brings.
Their CD's are best sellers, and their concerts have received great praise:
- Joachim-Ernst Berendt: "One of the most beautiful concerts I have ever seen."
- Gabrielle Roth: "This is the music of earth angels, sublime and transcendent, divine longing held in every note."
- Elisabeth Kübler-Ross: "Wonderful music. Please promise me you will sing at my funeral."
- Cher: "Deva Premal's CD is my favourite music for Yoga practice. I love it!"
