Imee’s works have also been regarded as a significant milestone in the development of Buddhist music with a wide range of compositions sung in seven different languages.
By popular demand from a growing fan base around the world, Sound of Wisdom –Imee Ooi Concert premiered in Kuala Lumpur in July 2015.

The format of the presentation is both a Dharma musical and a modern concert in one. The content incorporates an array of music genres, focusing mainly on world and new age music, and aims to appeal to a new generation of concert-goers while providing the regulars with something familiar, inspiring and close to their heart. Besides having a strong and experienced team of stage art and technical professionals, ensemble performers will also include some of the best vocalists in Malaysia along with musical dancers who meet national standards.
