Tiara Culture, More Than Just Performers

Tiara Culture is a folk instrumental ensemble committed to the research, preservation and celebration of the diversity that exists in indigenous Nepali music. Tiara Culture firmly believes that the richness in Nepali music is directly significant of the rich diversity that exists in the Nepali people. As we become more aware of the multiculturalism in Nepali society, be it in Kathmandu or other parts of the country, political, social and developmental attention is trained on recognizing differences and ensuring rights for our diverse groups of people.
