SOUNDS OF THE SACRED, SONGS OF THE EARTH
A Celebration for World Peace
 


In the lush green mountains of Topanga, “Sounds of the Sacred, Songs of the Earth” unveils inspired performances that celebrate spiritual traditions from across the world. The day’s festivities and sunset concert will bring together Balinese, Tibetan, Hindu, Sufi, Flamenco and Middle Eastern music.

Temple Mantras stir the soul with the Tibetan Terton, Kunzang Rinpoche and the Monks & Nuns of Zangdokpalri. Flamenco pianist, Pedro Ricardo Miño ignites us with his Gypsy roots. Renowned Sufi, Omar Faruk Tekbilek and Ensemble share the spiritual calls that echo throughout time. Eclectic sounds and rhythms of the Hani Naser Band, with Walfredo Reyes Jr., Armand Sabal-Lecco and Craig Eastman light up the night. This ensemble with special guest artists perform a World Première ‘tour de force’ composed for this night by Richard Horowitz.

From Noon to 5pm experience Balinese, Flamenco, Tibetan and Sufi music, dance and theatre performances for the whole family. Listen to the sounds and rhythms of Llanto's “the flamenco cry of life”, Gaia Mama’s “Tibetan sounds of the earth”, Bali & Beyond’s “the music and shadow theatre of Bali” and “theatre for the soul” with the poetry of Rumi and Tagore. Enjoy Thai, Indian, Balinese cuisines, fresh coconut juice, international treats and drinks from around the world.
