The New CD from SoundsTrue and Nawang Khechog
Over the past 25 years, flutist Nawang Khechog has been hailed as the global ambassador of Tibetan music. With The Tibetan Healing Music of Nawang Khechog, he offers a hand-picked selection of his finest compositions for healing, contemplation, and experiencing the beauty of Tibet's musical heritage. Nawang has arranged this music to support meditation and the healing arts, combining the serenity of the Tibetan flute with the recurring use of a powerful chant for universal compassion led by His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Filled with timeless favorites and featuring three new tracks, here is an essential collection from a master of Tibetan meditation music.
Born in Tibet, Nawang Khechog spent his earliest years as the child of nomads. In his boyhood he first learned to play the bamboo flute,an ancient instrument popular in rural villages throughout Tibet. After the brutal subjugation of Tibet by Chinese Communists in 1949, Nawang and his family escaped to India. There he studied meditation and Buddhist philosophy, a path he followed as a monk for eleven years - four of them as a hermit. In 1986, he emigrated to Australia where he first performed,and his recordings achieved bestseller status. Nawang is best known for his collaborations with Kitaro, including a world tour and performances on Kitaro's Grammy-nominated Enchanted Evening and Mandala albums. His live performances with Philip Glass, Paul Winter, Laurie Anderson, Paul Simon, Natalie Merchant, and Baba Olatunji have received international acclaim.
