CD-Revolutions , May 2000
When the 9 to 5 race frazzles your nerves, find relief on your own Oasis with
Yashu.On this second release with Nazca Music, Yashu's exquisite flute takes
you on a journey of the heart. Her soft sensual sound is accompanied by her
long time friend, Moksha on guitar, bass and guimbre (traditional Maroccan
bass); Harida on drums and percussion; and Somesh on guitar and keyboard. The
spirited belly-dance rhythms and soaring melody of "Gap in Marrakesh"
is worth the price of the album alone; it's impossible to sit still while
listening to this track. Enchanting, etheral, spirited ... you'll love it!

Another solace for the weary mind, heart, and body is Oasis, by Yashu. A
professional flutist for over twenty years, Yashu has accompanied avantgarde
musicians, including Mirasol Colores, Toti Soler, and Ovidi Montilor in
European concerts. Her album, "In Silence" (1996) and her latest
release "Oasis", were recorded at Nazca Music in Holland. Yashu is
accompanied by her long time friends, Harida on drums and percussion; Moksha on
guitar, bass, and guimbre; and Somesh on guitar and keyboard. Some of the music
was composed twenty years ago in the presence of Osho, and other pieces are
from today - all are a delight. My personal favorite is "Gap in
Marrakesh" which is a more spirited, Middle Eastern, slow belly-dance beat
that will put a wiggle in your asana. Oasis is soft and playful, heart-centered
music that will guide you within to your own spiritual oasis. - Kathryn Sargent

....That's music of another world, where beauty and harmony are natural, where
there's no place for ugly, where love, freedom and creativity are the real
values. And in fact that world is the only real world. And Yashu's divine flute
leads us towards that beautiful, sacred place... The presence of the Master can
be apparently felt in her music. His universe opens in front of you, and you
enter there, and you are filled with love, beauty, joy, they are just deluging
you, and nothing remains - only that love and delight in the existence. That's
the main quality of the music of Yashu. So much love and bliss! Here West meets
East, not to be ever departed. I feel that Oasis is an Eastern music absorbed
and performed by Western people. And that makes it very special and distinct.
And there is feeling of unlimited freedom of creativity, freedom of human
spirit. And that presence is such that one immediately falls in love with that
divine music - or rejects it forever. Yes, just so, because it's dangerous for
an evil heart! Blessed Oasis by Yashu! A delicate flavour of poetry, a superior
aesthetics. Listening to this music, you want to be present in Eternity with
those immeasurably beautiful beings! Just to be with them, to celebrate, to
create infinitely with them...
