ANTARA is one of the founding members of The Winds of Change, the shamanic sounds healing collective which preceded the Heaven On Earth Ensemble. This work has brought her healing sounds into school presentations, drum circles,  drum-making workshops, shamanic journey workshops, community performances, and television appearances.

 

She carries teachings of the Apache and Dineh people from 8 years apprenticeship in Colorado with a shaman elder. She blends these Earth teachings with the emptiness teachings of Buddhism as taught by the enlightened Geshe Michael Roach and Lama Zopa Rinpoche. Finding balance within these 2 traditions, Antara embraces her natural gift as a dreamweaver, sound healer, and bringer of beauty—as artist, graphic designer, web designer (this site), jewelry designer, and published poet & writer. Her Marketing degree assists in anchoring and promoting the Heavens projects.

 

Earth Angel, Original Shamama, Holder of the Dharma Drum, Singer from the Heart, she dedicates her efforts creating this website, all Heaven On Earth events, and lifetimes of spiritual study/practice for the happiness and enlightenment of all sentient beings—that means you!

Bill Pernice  His first language is music.  He learned to read music before he could read words when he began studying the piano at the age of four.  He played most of the instruments in his high school band and has a penchant for making music with a variety of sounds and instrumentations.

 

His studies have taken him from classical to modern to indigenous, tribal, and world music.  He has a burning passion for jazz and improvisation.  Bill has devoted much of his life to bringing his music to others, as a performer, composer and teacher, working with adults and children.

 

He is currently on the faculty of the Green Meadow Waldorf School, Sunbridge College, and the Centro Antroposofico de Mexico.  In his work with the Heaven on Earth Ensemble he creates the musical space for each moment to unfold and support the healing process with his diverse musical sounds of piano, flute, and percussion, and his deep listening.  He channels the music of the present moment.  Music, Bill believes, is the vibrational foundation and essence for the manifestation of form.

Michael "T.A." Thompson: Percussionist, Composer, Producer, and Pianist

“Soundrhythium” Michael "T.A." is an anomaly. He is a natural healer whose infinite openness taps directly into The Source. "T.A." plays as he breathes and lives. Allowing all energy to flow through him, his palate encompasses an abundance of sound colors and vibrations. He hears everything and plays with it in a way that's ever inventive and perceptively responsive. You'll always find him in the moment: inspired, inspiring, giving and receiving. “T.A.” is also an instructor of non-conventional rudiments that brings the student into a rhythm of self-identity.

                                   

Following the energy flow, “T.A.” has welcomed all forms of music to stream through him throughout his life. There are no genre boundaries – in fact, no boundaries whatsoever. What comes through is direct from The Source, unadulterated and ever healing.

 

“Light and Love clear the atmosphere”

 

“One of the important characteristics necessary for a jazz musician is to be creative, and I’m not sure from which fountain Mike Thompson drank, but it’s obviously one that will never run dry.” ~ Diario de Coimbra Daily, “The Temperature Rises”  (feature), Joao Pedro Viegas, Portugal
