This is the third release of Tibetan Buddhist music from Nonesuch's Exprolorer Series of ethnic music and field recordings, recorded by David Lewiston in 1976. This was recorded locally by David Lewiston in the style of the Dukpa Kargyu school at Pal Phuntsok Chukorling Monastery in the Tashidzong district of Himachal Pradesh, Northwest India. The performance is based on the Dukpa Kargyu school of music, with sutra chanting in a bass voice that contains many overtones, as if echoing through the mountainous terrain, and the high sounding instruments such as gold percussion instruments and wind instruments, which have deeply influenced jazz musicians such as Don Cherry and avant-garde musicians such as Musica Elettronica Viva and its member Alvin Curran. But the real thing itself is extremely avant-garde sounding.
