Thaye Dorje, His Holiness the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa, is a world spiritual leader. Born on 6 May 1983, Karmapa is a Buddhist teacher and ambassador for peace.

Karmapa was 11 years old when he made a dramatic escape from Tibet to India. In 1994, he was enthroned as the 17th incarnation of the Karmapa, and the leader of the Karma Kagyu lineage – one of the main schools of Tibetan Buddhism.

As the 17th Karmapa, he holds the precious transmission of unique Buddhist knowledge and methods passed down for nearly 1,000 years by the Kagyu lineage masters.

Karmapa has spiritual responsibility for over 900 monasteries and Buddhist centers in 68 countries around the world.

Karmapa has a powerful vision of peace. Inner Wealth, he believes, holds the key to peace within ourselves and within our communities. We are all enriched with Inner Wealth, a limitless source of compassion and wisdom. Karmapa teaches that by cultivating our natural, noble qualities, we are all able to experience and express peace.

As a world Buddhist master, Karmapa is able to translate traditional wisdom into practical steps that we can all use to be happier and to benefit the world around us.

He teaches students and the public around the world, through in-person and digital events on karmapa.org.

Karmapa’s other activities include: empowering young people; meeting international leaders in the fields of spirituality, peace, conflict resolution, and education; and creating videos and articles to promote peace and prosperity in our world.

Sonido Gallo Negro is a band that incorporates the psychedelic Peruvian cumbia sound of the 70's, and fuses it with sub-genres like chicha, Amazonian cumbia, cumbia sonidera, huayno, and Boogaloo.
With the inseparable combo of the Farfisa, the Fuzz and the Güiro sounds, Sonido Gallo Negro leads you into the threshold of an altered and mystical state of mind.
Their first album titled "Cumbia Salvaje” was presented in September 2011, released under Grabaxiones Alicia.
The wild live performances of their first album, where the mystical was merged with the hypnotic and rhythmic sounds of cumbia, and the live illustrations with tagtool by the Argentine artist Dr. Alderete, gained them faithful followers and received great reviews in national and international media. This initial success lead them to be invited to the 2012 Kustendorf film and music festival, organized by filmmaker Emir Kustirica and held in Drvengard - Mokra Gora, Serbia. From there they went on to perform concerts in Italy and Spain in February 2012.
In 2013 the band will be presenting live at the Vive Latino, a Latin American musical and cultural festival held in Mexico City, which coincides with the imminent release of their second album.
Sonido Gallo Negro is a proposal of exotic rarity that likes to dress their music with esoteric airs that alter perceptions and force you to dance to exhaustion...
