About this Event
Relax and unwind as Chris Dingman enchants you with his critically acclaimed music, described by The New York Times as "hypnotizing" and by Jazz at Lincoln Center as "absolutely beautiful."
Chris plays the vibraphone - a unique and beautiful instrument - in a singular, virtuosic way using the waves and layers of sound along with his voice to bring listeners into a heightened meditative state where healing, connection, visions, and inspiration can occur.
It is a dream-like experience, a sonically rich and expansive journey. that is at once activating, relaxing, and rejuvenating.
The evening begins with the primordial sounds of powerful gongs by Harmony Works, quieting the mind and clearing the body, preparing you to fully experience the mystical and uplifting sonic journey offered by Chris Dingman.
Dream with us in this beautiful and supportive community setting. All are welcome!

About Chris:
An acclaimed musician of many genres, Chris Dingman has been performing on the vibraphone for 25+ years, including with celebrated masters Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, and many others. He brings together this background with a host of studies and influences from around the world, in service of taking listeners on a journey to a transcendent place.
Working in the fields of jazz, experimental, and world music for decades, Chris’s trajectory changed when, in 2018, his father entered hospice. Chris played and recorded meditative music as an act of care for him in his final months of life. These recordings were released as the 5-hour extended album Peace.
Since then, Chris has brought his special brand of healing music journeys far and wide, from live sessions at Omega Institute and The Rubin Museum of Art to his regular online series Transformations and Transformations for Grief, his work with the Psychedelic Sangha, music for mediumship, and much more. His critically acclaimed albums Journeys vol. 1 and vol. 2, are described by The New York Times as “hypnotizing,” and by Jazz at Lincoln Center as “absolutely beautiful.”
Chris has presented talks and performances at the Gold Foundation Conference on Humanism in Medicine, the American College of Physicians, the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (NYC), and written for the Johns Hopkins Medicine blog. He has been profiled by NPR, the New York Times, AMNY, and many other publications, and has received fellowships and grants from Chamber Music America, New Music USA, South Arts, and the Thelonious Monk Institute.
