Mr Choegyal will visit the area to perform his concert 'Be the Mountain' at Twyford Hall in Merimbula on Sunday, May 1.

Drawing on his Tibetan roots, Mr Choegyal's soaring vocals and traditional Tibetan flute solos express a deep connection to the wandering people of his homeland.

Being a son of Tibetan nomads, Mr Choegyal said he feels a particular connection to the music of the Himalayan plateau and remains dedicated to preserving Tibet's musical traditions.

"My music has evolved through my own journey from Tibet to India, Australia and around the world. But wherever I am in the world, my music also connects me to my homeland," he said.

The world-renowned Tibetan singer-songwriter came to Australia in 1997 and has since taken audiences on a journey through his lilting, nomad-style songs, Buddhist texts and poetry, and playful Tibetan folk tunes that reflect the experiences of the Tibetan people.

Mr Choegyal's recent album, Songs from the Bardo, is a contemporary interpretation of the Tibetan Book of the Dead.
