Editorial Reviews In Contrast, Premal was born in Germany in 1970 of a mystic/artist father and a musically talented mother. She was taught classical music and raised in an atmosphere of mantras and spiritual discipline. By the time she was five years old, she was already chanting the Gayatri Mantra daily. Miten and Premal met each other in India in 1990 and began their journey into the heart of music. They created their popular seminars "The Power of the Voice- From Song into Silence", focusing on the voice as a powerful healing instrument in the form of concerts and satsangs-'experiencing silence through music'- which they now present throughout the world. Over the past five years they have performed in most European countries and have travelled as far as Brazil and Costa Rica appearing on radio and television. To Miten and Premal music is much more than just entertainment. It is a sacred tool that reawakens a longing in the heart for that which is omnipresent- the experience of inner peace and meditation.
