Nestor is an awesome talent and I really like his music! He also put a musical version
of daimoku (chanting Nam Myoho Renge Kyo) and gongyo (supplemental practice, reciting part of the Lotus Sutra) to music and has inspired many people with the beatuiful "flow"
of this piece of music. Highly recommended! (And Nestor is an SGI member as well as a
"superstar" in Central America! If you'd like to, encourage you to check out sgi: www.sgi.org.)

"I recently attended a wonderful convention for peace,culture & education celebration in Denver over the 6-30-06 weekend.
Nestor performed, he expressed life in the most magnificent form on stage! It was truly breath taking!!!
His expression and intent for sharing the joys of life emerged
and moved everyone to tears!!! I have been humming the beautiful sounds and feeling the passion for life! (Plus, I just bought your recent CD!) I look forward in sharing this with my family & friends!
Thank-you so much,

"Although I have recited Lotus Sutra for almost four long decades, honestly I always felt some kind of hesitation to do so. Now, I found the new interpretation is possible in this way wonderfully by the artist like you, I feel so much joy. It turned out that doing gongyo is much fun. We love you. Thank you so much, Nester."

"I have been a Nestor Torres Fan since I saw him with the Philly Pops(twice) and then in a small club venue in Boston! This CD combines his wonderful latin jazz rhythms with his spiritual side which he talks about freely. An unusual combination on one recording but it certainly WORKED well for me!(A jazz lover and a yoga lady)(Smile)
Enjoy all !!!!"

"This CD is my first experience with Nestor Torres' music. I found it to be a beautiful, gentle, collection of flute tunes, but not boring at all. It is clear that Mr Torres was spiritually inspired to create this music, but he is also an excellent musician, so the music isn't easy listening music. It contains interesting melodies and some unusual vocal and instrumental accompaniment. I will certainly be looking for more of this talented flutist's music now that I've heard this CD."
