She embodies a uniquely American story as a refugee living in exile in New York City. Since fleeing Tibet on foot in 1989, Yungchen, whose name means &#8220;Goddess of Song&#8221; has emerged as the world&#8217;s leading Tibetan vocalist and has collaborated with artists such as Natalie Merchant, Philip Glass, and Annie Lennox. She mesmerizes audiences with her haunting a cappella performances. Through her music, which explores Buddhist themes of spiritual pilgrimage, soul searching, and a delight in the natural environment, she weaves song and prayer in a sacred art form.<\/p>\n<p>Please note: advance pricing ends at 4:00pm, Friday, March 6.<\/p>\n<p>*Groups of 10 or more can receive a discount of $5 per ticket off the general admission price.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, please visit<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.eventbrite.com\/e\/the-asian-experience-in-america-yungchen-lhamo-tibetan-singer-songwriter-tickets-15144929893?aff=es2&amp;rank=8\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.eventbrite.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>03\/08\/2015 2:30pm-4pm Marble Collegiate Church 1 West 29th Street , New York, NY 10001<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-50861","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-stay-connected-to-the-latest-local-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50861","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/29"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=50861"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50861\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":50933,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/50861\/revisions\/50933"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=50861"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=50861"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=50861"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
