As music and arts director of Agape International Spiritual Center, Rickie Byars Beckwith directs the 200-member Agape International Choir, and has performed at appearances with His Holiness the Dalai Lama, at Green Festivals across America, and at countless peace concerts. She and husband Michael Bernard Beckwith have created a catalog of songs that use music's power for transformational healing. Rickie and the Agape Choir have collaborated with Stevie Wonder, John Legend, Will.I.Am, Niki Haris and Brenda Marie Eager; and are heard throughout North America, Europe, Africa—and all places in between.
About TEDx:
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
