Singularity – Meeting of the Minds

Myriad cultures collide to make one joyous sound, a living expression of ‘Singularity’, the oneness of all things, but each retaining its unique personality. Designed as an exploration in bringing together Indian ethnic styles in vocals and instrumentation with the western influences of jazz, funk and contemporary. Saxophone meets Jazz vocals and Hindustani flute, and a world-class pianist improvises with Carnatic kritis performed by the Orchestra.

A celebration of diverse sonic identities coming together to create a unified music.
