KYAB YUL-SA is the title of a singular artistic project : a musical journey through traditional musics, which are revisited, to constitute the starting point of original and contemporary compositions.
KYAB YUL-SA was born after the meeting between Lobsang Chonzor, a traditional tibetan musician, Youenn Rohaut who plays musics from Northern Europe, and Julien Lahaye who plays the traditional instruments from Middle-East and more particularly from Iran.
In tibetan language, KYAB means “exile”; YUL-SA means “the place”, “the land”
