February 26 saw the magic of the 37th annual Tibet House US Benefit Concert at Carnegie Hall in NYC. The show saw an eclectic lineup of hugely talented acts including Laurie Anderson, Joan Baez, Maggie Rogers, Maya Hawke, Bowen Yang, and many more.
Every year, the annual Tibet House Benefit Concert hosts extraordinary and memorable one-night-only performances. The evening had countless standout moments as the artists celebrated the Year of the Dragon.
The Tibetan Monks performed to an entranced audience to start the show. The hypnotizing vocals welcomed Tibet House President Bob Thurman who shared his gratitude for the evening’s co-artistic directors and the Tibetan people.
Various types of arts were played including quartets of strings which backed a guided meditation session. Acoustic melody, grand ensemble, comedy and poetry. The renowned Philip Glass Ensemble captivated concertgoers. At various points throughout the night, the audience was moved to emotion, and moved to their feet for ovations.
The festivities continued late into the night as the performing artists, VIPs, and Tibet House supporters like Chloë Sevigny, Clairo, Sarah Morris, Jason Weinberg and more enjoyed the elegant post-concert gala at Ziegfeld Ballroom. Proceeds support the work of Tibet House US. Their mission is to protect, preserve, and empower the unique Tibetan culture.
