The Power of Compassion – Sacred Dance and Music from Tibet
Tibet - the Land of Snows: home to Buddhist lamas whose ancient rituals have fascinated people for thousands of years.
The show presents chant, mantras, music and dance by eight Tibetan Monks from Tashi Lhunpo Monastery. From the contemplative, mesmerising chant of Buddhist texts to swirling costumed masked dances accompanied by ancient Tantric musical instruments. With introductory explanations offering additional insight into this endangered world.
