Nada Himalaya is one of the strongest meditation/healing discs of the '90s. Deuter lived and traveled in Asia for ten years and amassed a collection of Tibetan bowls and bells. The sonority of these bowls is absolute. The power is magnificent to the tenth power. Deuter is the veteran's veteran and has injected the spirit of his experiences into this CD. The extra attraction is the melody. Deuter designed the sound to serve as an ambient soundscape as well as a meditation focal point. This CD will appeal to fans of Dean Evenson, Thea Susaru, Life in Balance, and Klaus Wiese.
