The Heart Is the Universe DVD
“Tisziji Muñoz…is like a free-jazz yoda, teaching spiritual lessons through his music, speaking in cryptic paradox only when the audience needs the crutch, and preferring to demonstrate the power of the force through blistering fretwork belying his ever-serene countenance.” —Josh Potter, Metroland
“It seemed fitting that a 19th century church was the setting, as Muñoz and company reached deep into their cosmic bag to combine music and spirituality for an evening that truly transcended the musical spheres.” —Andrzej Pilarczyk, Nippertown
“Muñoz and his band created a soundscape that was both ferocious and contemplative, that hipped up a wall of sound, but also carved out space for more meditative moods. The music was complex, but also melodic, soaring, and ethereal.” —Daily Gazette
