GLIMPSES OF TIBET 藏密 - WORLD MUSIC (CD)

GLIMPSES OF TIBET 藏密 - WORLD MUSIC (CD)

Tibet is a mystical land embraced by millions of pilgrims as a center of holiness. From the legendary Himalayas to the Brahmaputra river surging as it did millions of years before mankind, to Ngari, the region known as the Roof of the World - this is the land beyond time. The story of the music of the Tibetan nationality is a grand historic epic, developing over the centuries and distilled from many cultures that traveled the Qinghai-Tibet Plains - Indians, Kashmiris, Mongols, and Han Chinese all contributed to the rich mystical tapestry. The development of Tibetan music is inseparable from the culture's ancient religious and spiritual traditions. In this special edition you will hear ten original compositions, conceived as a musical journey into the history and traditions of Tibet. Each piece utilizes aspects of Tibetan music as source material, respectfully transcribed and developed in a contemporary idiom - allowing tradition and modernity to flow together. It is the composer's hope that this disc will not only introduce new listeners to the magnificent world of Tibetan folk song but to expand the appreciation of Tibetan music to classical music specialists. For this special edition, we invited Asia's preeminent recording engineer, Li Xiaopei to oversee and master the final recordings made at the 480 squar- meter CCTV studios - Asia's largest recording venue. Post-production mastering - in full XRCD (Extended Resolution) sound was graciously provided by the technicians of JVC (The Victor Company of Japan). May the transcendent joy of the Six Syllable Mantra cause the oceans of your heart to overflow with light and receive the joy and peace that reaches out to you from snow capped mountains at the "Roof of the World."
