http://www.atpeacemedia.com/YOGA, offers life enhancing, renewing, acoustic massage music for yoga, meditation, relaxation, stress-relief and the healing arts. Whispering percussion, soulful flutes and recorders, airy piano and key- boards and sublime guitars gently blend together, creating a tranquil, yet expansive musical flow.
Michael Benghiat, who composed and arranged the music on YOGA has been described by Music Design In Review as "a gifted and sensitive artist whose music is attracting attention from massage therapists all over the world".
Artist bio:
Michael Benghiat is a California native. Accomplished on both piano and guitar, Michael grew up in a home surrounded by music. Early exposure to enduring folk traditions such as Greek, Sephardic, Spanish and Middle Eastern music, as well as to classical orchestral music, helped forge Michael's unique musical sensibility. His curiosity and interest in non-western musical instruments and traditions finds expression today in his study and collection of exotic acoustic instruments from around the world. His ongoing explorations of musical culture are a natural extension of his BA degree and graduate level work in classical music composition at UCLA. The author of several books on guitar, Michael's work as a musician and composer reflects his desire to "reach more people than I can teach one-on-one."
The beauty of the Big Sur coastline of California inspired Michael's first At Peace CD recording, Harmony, the original soundtrack to the award-winning Esalen Massage Video. Since that time, listeners worldwide have discovered Michael's At Peace collection of music compositions.
