Tenzin Choegyal and friends will perform live on Saturday as part of his Australian tour with a new album Whispering Sky that transcends cultures and borders, reflecting the beauty of friendship and our shared passion for music.
Son of a nomad, Tenzin continues to bring new sounds of Tibet while strongly holding the essence of ancient Tibetan wisdom. An outstanding composer/ performer with a great depth of musical knowledge, intuition and inventiveness, he attributes his art form to the early karmic imprints of hearing his mother and father as a toddler. For 25 years he has performed around the world, collaborating with Philip Glass, Patti Smith, Tenzin Kunsang and many local artists such as Yeshe, Michael Askill, Cye Wood. He recently performed in an Indian concert for H.H. The Dalai Lama.
This concert will feature Tenzin Kunsang and Nydian, traditional Tibetan theatre, and Yeshe who recently returned to performing and was described in the SMH as ‘Tom Waits meets Harry Manx’.
He will play with emerging Rosie Jenkins, who co-created music for the Julian Assange film. The Women’s Climate acapella group will open the evening.
Doors, dinner, momos, GF veg, cakes and chai from 6pm at St Johns Hall, Mullumbimby. Tickets: events.humanitix.com/whispering-sky-3f9qyxag. Information: [email protected].
