In case you can't make it out that evening, your contribution to this fund is deeply appreciated. 

Dorjee Tsering, one of the founding members of The Royal Conservatory’s in-house ensemble, KUNÉ — Canada’s Global Orchestra, passed away on January 4, 2019, after a lengthy battle with cancer. 

A Tibetan exile, Dorjee was born in India, where he joined the Tibetan Institute for Performing Arts in Dharamsala. There he mastered several traditional instruments and also learned Tibetan opera, as well as several styles of singing and dance. After graduating, he became a teacher at the Institute while pursuing an award-winning musical career that saw him perform throughout India.

Dorjee began a new life in Canada 8 years ago after his first wife died in childbirth. While in Canada, he developed his beloved stage performance One Hour in Tibet, which introduced audiences to the history and beauty of Tibetan culture. In 2016, Dorjee joined KUNÉ, where he played the dranyen (Himalayan lute) and piwang (Tibetan fiddle), as well as providing vocals. 

Please help us support Dorjee's family during this difficult time and come celebrate Dorjee's life and music March 21st!
