David Parsons has worked extensively with Indian instruments and with synthesizers. At age twenty,
inspired by Ravi Shankar, he fell in love with the sitar and since then has traveled to India many times to further his study of the sitar and Indian music. Parsons
composed almost exclusively on Indian instruments until 1979 when he purchased his first synthesizer. His devotion to both Western technology and Eastern music and
instruments is evidenced in his music. Parsons` first two releases, Tibetan Plateau/Sounds of the Mothership (17013), received overwhelming praise from new age radio shows
and publications. Himalaya continues the expression of David Parsons` devotion, and displays his exceptional talent as a composer.
