Hi Folks, I’m pleased to share with you a new free sheet music website for Buddhist Choral Music – www.buddhistchoralmusic.com
You’re warmly encouraged to browse through over twenty pieces available to download as sheet music, which your choirs can perform or record.
In recent years, Buddhism has spread to the West, becoming the fastest growing religion in some countries, its teachings and practices striking a chord with individuals seeking spiritual growth and inner peace. Previously, as it reached new parts of the world, Buddhism had a transformative effect on the cultures it encountered, as new Buddhists share and communicate the Buddha Dharma in ways informed by their own traditions.
One of the biggest new Buddhist Movements, the Triratna Buddhist Community (with several centres in the USA), emphasises engagement with the arts as one of the most valuable aspects of spiritual practice. Members of the Triratna Buddhist Order have been creating explicitly Buddhist visual art in a modern style for some time, and increasingly they are creating in other areas too, including choral music.
Buddhist Choral Music is a new website which brings together recorded performances of pieces composed by Bodhivajra, Vipulakirti, Manidhara and Sarvadarśin.
All of the music on the site is shared freely, although donations are welcome towards the cost of running the site and to fund future compositions and recordings. Many thanks, I hope you enjoy the music.
