For TIBET with Love Home Concert with Tenzin Choegyal Newborough @ Newborough Guide Hall
Nov 22 @ 3:30 pm – 5:30 pm

From New York’s Carnegie Hall to the Sydney Opera House, from Womadelaide to Woodford Folk Festival, and many places in between Tibetan singer-songwriter Tenzin Choegyal has thrilled audiences around the world with his soaring vocals and mastery of traditional instruments. He has performed before the Dalai Lama and shared the stage with many well-known artists and composers. But he especially enjoys the chance to perform at more intimate concerts where he can share playful stories and well-loved traditional tunes with his audiences. Tenzin was born in Tibet, a child of Tibetan nomads who followed their herds and traded salt, spending summers in the mountains and wintering on the plains. However, as featured on a recent episode of the ABC’s Foreign Correspondent,  he spent his early years in Mustang, in the north-east of Nepal, after his family fled the Chinese occupation in the early 1970’s. But memories of the music of his homeland have stayed with him.

An outstanding vocalist, Tenzin is a master of traditional Tibetan instruments such as the dranyen (long-necked lute) and lingbu (transverse bamboo flute). He recalls, when growing up, hearing his father playing the flute and his mother singing the nomadic songs of Tibet. Alongside traditional Tibetan Buddhist devotional chants, these songs still play a central part in his musical repertoire today.

Tenzin sets aside several weeks each year for his very special “For Tibet with Love Home Concert Tour”, performing concerts in people’s homes or other intimate venues to raise money for the Tibetan Children’s Village (TCV) school in Dharamsala, India. TCV was established in the early 1960’s and to this day continues to support the orphaned and destitute children of Tibetan refugees.

We are delighted to be hosting one of Tenzin’s “home” concerts in Newborough on November 22nd. This promises to be a joyful evening of music and sharing as well as a unique opportunity to support Tenzin in his cause.
