Originally released in 1994 on Sony Classical, THE LAMA'S CHANTS became a legendary milestone of sacred chant recording, achieving gold status in many countries.



It was the first collaboration between the Lama - who was bestowed the title Ouzme, Master of Music, in his early days of monastic training in Bhutan - and the blind French pianist Jean-Philippe Rykiel.



This tenth anniversary edition features a re-mastered version of the classic original album, accompanied by a bonus CD of Tibetan Buddhist chants recorded at live performances spanning several years, including some mantras heard on Lama Gyurme's RAIN OF BLESSINGS - also a collaboration with Rykiel - which was released on Peter Gabriel's Real World label in 2000.
