SHASTRO
Shastro is a multi-instrumentalist, born in Italy. The development of his unique musical style evolved over many years during his frequent visits to other countries such as Spain, Turkey, Africa, South America and India. These journeys were inspired by a spiritual search that led him to experience meditation in India and creating music for various meditation techniques. His music can best be described as relaxed world music. He performs on Spanish guitar, Indian Bansuri flute, Clarinet, African Kora harp, Indian Dilruba, Native American flutes and other ethnic instruments all with equal ease and beauty, integrating sometime ancient instruments into a compelling contemporary sound. Shastro specializes in music to drift away on - even his upbeat titles exude this relaxed
soothing effect.
Shastro is the president of Malimba Records that he founded in 1997 to help distribute his music as well as the music of several other musicians and friends.
At present he has created 17 albums for the label's catalog -see below. Only his very first recording is not in the catalog: the music for the popular Osho No Dimension Meditation (read the story of the creation HERE).

Zen Moments (Remastered) ~ Shastro & Raphael (2026)
A newly remastered acoustic album featuring the spontaneous interplay of harp and clarinet. Shastro and Raphael create a one-hour improvisation focused on the profound power of silence as much as sound.
With enhanced clarity and depth, this edition invites you to access a deeper space within yourself. Perfect for meditation, relaxation, or simply being present, the music offers a delicate balance where sound and silence merge into a single, calming experience.
Silver Moon Improv (LIVE) by Shastro (2026)
Some music is planned. Silver Moon was not.
Recorded live during a concert at a yoga studio in Mallorca, Spain, this is Shastro improvising freely on silver flute — unscripted, unguarded, and fully present in the moment.
What you hear is the music finding itself in real time. The intimacy of a small studio. The breath behind every note. The kind of stillness that only happens when nobody knows exactly where the music is going
— including the musician.
Silver Moon is an invitation to stop, listen, and simply be.
