Yidaki - Didgeridoo meets Mongolia & Tibet. Brought to you by Tenzin Choegyal

THE PERFORMERS Musical Director Tenzin Choegyal brings together five extraordinary musical talents to weave a tapestry of sound from the Asia Pacific region. Internationally recognised since the age of 15, William Barton (didgeridoo, Australia) has performed with the London and Berlin Philharmonic Orchestras and composed music for the Beijing Olympics opening ceremony. A master of his instrument and experienced collaborator, William won an ARIA in 2012 for best classical album with Kalkadungu. Baatasukh Batsukh (vocals and morin khuur, Mongolia) is a master of the horse- headed fiddle -- morin khurr -- and the traditional overtone throat singing style. Tenzin Choegyal (vocals and instrumentalist) composes music which is strongly influenced by his family's nomadic heritage. Tenzin appears regularly at major events such as Woodford Folk Festival and WOMAD and recently played Carnegie Hall in New York alongside notables such as Philip Glass and Patti Smith. Tenzin is also Creative Director of the annual Festival of Tibet and the Himalayan Film Festival. APSA Dec 2013 opening performance www.tenzinchoegyal.com www.tenzinchoegyal.com
