Product Description Desert Bloom is a sonic celebration of the magic that blooms inside the totally open heart. We have created this music with the intention of inspiring love, compassion and creativity to blossom forth in your heart and in your life. Review A wonderfully soothing CD which brought me back to a 10 day whitewater rafting trip I took on the Rio Grande.. Instruments include tabla, harmonica, nylon and steel acoustic guitars, electric and lap steel guitars, along with synthesizers and precussion. -- Christina Lord: Creations MagazineDesert Bloom by Anton Mizerak, Karl Joseph, and Chuck Wilson. If there is such a catagory as "country western New Age," this is it. It's Anton Mizerak's sixth release, and frankly, my favorite so far. -- Carol Wright: NAPRAIt was exactly one year ago in this column that I reviewed Mizerak's previous release Unwind. Now, with Desert Bloom, he, Joseph and Wilson have ventured well out there into the realms of fresh musical territory. -- Steve Ryals: New Age Retailer

About the Artist Anton Mizerak is a composer and multi-instrumentalist who plays tabla, harmonica, synthesizers and piano. Anton is literate in Sanskrit, with an M.A. in the History of Religions. He has an intimate understanding of Asian spiritual and musical traditions which he utilizes to create music that enriches and enlivens the listener. Anton has been performing on piano and harmonica since 1968. In 1986, he began studying tabla (classical Indian drums) in Kathmandu, Nepal. Anton also performed for five years with Shasta Taiko, a Japanese-style folk drumming group in Northern California. These influences have led him to explore serious cross-cultural musical experimentation combining harmonica and synthesizers with traditional Asian melodic and percussive instruments.Anton Mizerak: keyboards, tabla, harmonica Chuck Wilson: Accoustic, electric and lap steel guitarsKarl Joseph: accoustic guitar Richard Hardy: flute, bansuri, soprano sax, pennywhistle Jim Hurlye: violin See more

mellow
Nice mellow tape but it was too western like for me. Perhaps a good tape for someone who travels a lot to the West (California, New Mexico, Arizona etc) or someone who travels to Mexico as wellAMber
