Grammy nominated Nawong Khechog performs Sat at Makawo Union Church

r Saturday, July 21st from 7pm - 9pm at the Makawao Union Church.  This event is being held in memory of Maui's late Tibetan Venerable Lama Dhondup Gyaltsen, a Tibetan monk and cultural leader that was very important to many on Maui and around the world. He was perhaps best known for his Sand Mandala meditations that toured the world. Sadly, Lama Dhondup passed away on May 25th. The evening, entitled "Sounds of Tibet and Universal Love & Compassion" will feature a musical performance by Nawang Khechog, a flute player and composer that is considered by many to be "the global ambassador of Tibetan music", and who lived as a monk for many years under the guidance of His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Khechog will be accompanied by Maui musician Sal Godinez on piano. To learn more about the event, about Lama Dhondup Gyaltsen, and about Nawang Khechog's many musical accomplishments, please see the attached press release and photo.  If you have any questions or press inquiries, do not hesitate to reach out. I can also connect you to Kathy to learn more, as she is close to both Lama Dhondup and Nawang Khechog. Mahalo for your support - this will be an unforgettable evening of music, reverence, and remembrance.For tickets go to tibetanflute.eventbrite.comgo to https://www.eventbrite.com/e/sounds-of-tibet-universal-love-and-compassion-with-nawang-khechog-tickets-47574911842http://www.nawangkhechog.com
