SNATAM KAUR | ORIGINAL LIGHT TOUR

Activité en anglais | Description en anglais seulement

Concert, chantfest, group meditation in music, yoga class in melody... a performance by Snatam Kaur and her band is all these things and more. Seated center stage, playing an Indian harmonium, Snatam is an angelic presence, dressed in traditional Sikh attire: pristine white dress, turban and veil. She’s a diminutive woman, barely five feet tall, but possessed of a voice that would wrest tears from a stone gargoyle—crystalline and radiant, redolent of the simple yet powerful truth of the heart.

The purity and beauty of Snatam Kaur’s voice arise not only from her abundant musical talent. They are also an audible reflection of a life of steadfast spiritual devotion and tireless service to humanity—which includes everything from feeding impoverished members of her southern New Hampshire community to aiding earthquake victims in Nepal and Syrian refugees in Greece in Snatam’s role as board member of the Sat Nam Foundation. All of this compassion-in-action is palpably present in the room when she sings.
