Mystical Arts of Tibet: Sacred Music Sacred Dance

Don't miss the opportunity to experience the famed Loseling monks in a performance that features their renowned multiphonic singing–in which the monks simultaneously intone three notes of a chord while chanting. Enrobing themselves in magnificent costumes and playing traditional Tibetan instruments, the Loseling monks perform nine pieces believed to generate energies conducive to world healing.

In addition to their on stage performance, the monks will create a beautiful mandala sand painting from November 26 through November 29 in front of the Amaturo Theater. After drawing an outline of the mandala on a wooden platform, the monks painstakingly lay millions of grains of colored sands in a process that causes the sands to flow like liquid onto the platform. The result is an exquisite painting that the monks destroy shortly after its completion as a metaphor for the impermanence of life.
