T'ai - Pi Peace through Beauty and Grace The Hexagrams of Peace and Grace, as presented by he "Book of Changes", one of the Classics of Chinese Philosophy, speaks of tranquil beauty,.. a quietness without and clarity within. This is the tranquility of pure contemplation. As desire is silenced and the will comes to rest, the world as an idea becomes mainifest. Here we are removed from the struggle for existence and the world can now become a place of great beauty. During this time the powers of heaven and earth unite in deep harmony allowing peace and blessings to descend upon all living things.... To this end we dedicate this music. - David Blonski & Anne Roos PURE MAGIC - From the first few moments, with the pure sounds of gentle harp and heavenly sounds of silver and bamboo flutes, you know you're hearing something special. ----------------- In addition to being an outstanding musician and producer, David Blonski additionally has 25 years of experience as a message therapist and Tai Chi Chih instructor. ----------------- THE CRITICS HAVE SAID: Hauntingly beautiful and meditative.

By layering and orchestrating the multitude of instruments he plays, David creates a unique sonic tapestry unlike any other. In addition to his musical interpretations of the peaceful and joyful moods evoked by the natural wonders of our planet, David also tries to celebrate our rich multi-cultural diversity. His current interest lies with our more primitive cultural heritage and he is currently exploring the use of the Aboriginal Didjeridoo and other world instruments. MUSICAL BACKGROUND As with most musicians David heard "the calling" at a very young age. He began singing in his elementary school chorus and church choir. In junior high school he played clarinet, bass clarinet and oboe in the school band. When David entered high school and college he turned his attention towards the sciences where he earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Marine Biology. Outside of class, he learned to play guitar but it wasn't until his later college years that he would pick up the flute, by happy accident, and begin his current love affair with music. Currently, David's music is being strongly influenced by his fascination with primitive instruments, most notably the Didjeridoo, Native American Indian Flute and 'world percussion' instruments. David recorded his first album "Timeless Flight" in 1983 with Ed Van Fleet of Synchestra. With that recording David knew that he had truly found himself. Today David plays his own brand of cross-cultural, environmental music in a very freeform and spontaneous way. He has become a superior musician, a prolific composer, a meticulous producer and recording engineer. And if that's not enough..... he's a marvelous artist and craftsman who hand makes several types of folk and world instruments including the Windsong Flute, Pennywhistle and Piccolo as well as replicas of Native American Indian Flutes and the Australian Aboriginal Didjeridoo. These instruments can be purchased from David by contacting Timeless Productions and information is available on line at the Web Site listed below. David is also a trained Massage Therapist and Tai Chi Chih Instructor. In addition to the 18 albums that David has recorded of his own work, David helped produce and score a new video music album called "FLIGHTS" featuring the computer graphic art of Peter Spoecker. David also shares his love of music by performing and giving presentations on the Didjeridoo and other world instruments at schools in the Northern California area. He is also available to other school districts nationwide. David currently lives in Garden Valley, California with his wife, Nina. The area is appropriately named and is the perfect setting for his special style of music. David runs his own production company and music label called Timeless Productions and his private studio is just a few steps out the back door so he is nearly always ready when inspiration strikes.
