Mastery, Signature Works & Repertoire
Female, Tibetan ethnicity, born in February 1968 in Xinghai County, Qinghai Province. Influenced from childhood by her grandmother and mother, she came into contact with the basic melodies and singing methods of traditional chanting tunes. The mani-style chanting tunes she transmits belong to the ritual music of Tibetan Buddhist folk religious activity. Centred on the six-syllable heart mantra of Avalokitesvara, the melodies are simple and elegant and have absorbed elements of folk mountain songs. Her voice is clear and bright, her chanting full of feeling and steady in rhythm with ornate embellishments, and she has a certain influence in her locality.
