We are very happy to welcome Drukmo Gyal from Tibet and Adrian DiMatteo from New York to Golden Drum on March 11th for all of us to experience beautiful Mantra Meditation and the spiritual sound of music.

Mantra means mind protection. Drukmo Gyal is from the Northeastern part of Tibet - from a yogi family where mantra, yoga, and meditation were shared through her family lineage. With support from the Tibetan yogi community, Drukmo Gyal has practiced mantras with ancient melodies. She began singing publicly in 2008, and achieved top 40 in a Chinese national singing contest in 2010, but due to her university studies drew back from a possible singing career.
