“ Meditation music unlike any you have ever heard, Jewels of Silence quiets the mind and gently carries you into a state of deep rest and relaxation ... to the very center of stillness within your being. Divinely inspired, transcendent music for healing, meditation, and deep relaxation, Jewels of Silence is an incomparably beautiful recording of great depth and exquisite sensitivity. Perfect music for the journey within ... for prayer, yoga, reiki, bodywork and rest, Jewels of Silence features Ashana's angelic vocal improvisations, crystal bowl playing and the vocal and keyboard artistry of Thomas Barquee, accompanied by bansoori flute, esraj and santoor.With each successive track, the listener floats into deeper and deeper states of profound relaxation. The exquisite music, accompanied by the constant droning of the crystal bowls, shifts brainwave patterns almost immediately into alpha, theta or delta states, quieting the mind and supporting meditation, rest and dreaming.

About the Artists
In a world of abundant musical talents and the ever-expanding New Age music genre, Ashana emerges as a consummate artist of sound and healing with a style uniquely her own. Weaving together soaring, angelic vocals in an exquisitely crafted, luminous sonic tapestry, Ashana's music, produced and co-written by renowned world music artist, Thomas Barquee, has been called A Gift from Heaven by New Age Retailer. Classically trained, Ashana graduated with a degree in voice from the prestigious Mannes College of Music in New York City. For the last decade, she has been involved in a deeply personal exploration of sound healing and vocal toning, during which period she discovered and began playing quartz crystal singing bowls, instruments that are most often used in contemplative practices to support healing, balance and well-being. As a world music pop artist, Thomas Barquee studied classical piano and composition in Germany and signed his first record deal as a pop singer/songwriter with Sony Music. He has released 7 albums in 42 countries. Barquee's music combines entertainment with spiritual healing and western with eastern elements. He believes that all religions have something in common. As a producer, Barquee helps other artists find their own true voice, and has worked with many, including Snatam Kaur, Seal, Lamont Dozier and Olivia D Abo. Ashana and Thomas' first musical collaboration, All Is Forgiven, has received international critical acclaim for its breathtaking beauty and the profound healing qualities of the music. In the hands of these two outstanding musicians, sacred vocal music and crystal sound come together, enfolding the listener in a transcendent experience of the Divine.
