Sacred Dance and Music for World Peace

             

 

 

The Tibetan cultural pageant features harmonic overtone chanting of traditional prayers, accompanied by temple instruments including horns, flutes, bells, and drums.  Delicate hand gestures and other offerings accompany the mystical rituals and multiphonic singing, (each monk chants a chord of three notes).  Richly costumed dances, including masked animals, will be performed.  Together with the narration accompanying each piece and the monastic debate, the event provides a fascinating and warm glimpse into ancient and current Tibetan culture.
