The Singing Bowls of Tibet (1981) - Alain Presencer.

Dr. Alain Presencer's The Singing Bowls of Tibet is a seminal 1981 recording that introduced many Western listeners to the meditative and ritualistic sounds of Himalayan instruments. As a noted "Tibetologist' and musician, Presencer used his collection of bowls, bells and other Himalayan instruments to create a unique, non-electronic soundscape that emphasises their natural overtones and harmonics. It was Alain Presencer and the board of directors at the record company that first coined the term "Singing Bowls" after they searched long and deep for a suitable title for the album.

We were honoured to have had the opportunity to interview Presencer several years ago where he was able to revise some of the myth that was presented on the album sleeve.
