Monks of Sherab Ling Monastery

Grammy Award Winner

The prayer ceremonies on this CD have been performed by the Tibetan Buddhist monks and nuns of the Karma Kagyu lineage as a part of their daily monastic life for hundreds of years. This recording features many of the traditional instruments that the Tibetan monks and nuns learn during their studies. Recorded live during ceremonies at the Sherab Ling Monastery, the ordinary noises of routine activity form an ambient backdrop to the chants, giving them an authenticity that transcends the recorded medium.
