Trilok Gurtu Orchestra - featuring Jan Garbarek
Audiences all over the world have been enthralled by Trilok Gurtu's burning sense of rhythm and his compositions, which link subtle Indian rhythms and singing with elements of modern jazz and rock.
For Svapnagata he presents a special evening in collaboration with seven classical Western musicians and an eclectic mix of instruments ranging from French horn, trumpet and violin to the santoor and didgeridoo. Together they perform works including a Bach concerto and the Romanian Dances by Béla Bartók.The Western musicians in turn will perform Trilok Gurtu's own compositions with him and world renowned Norwegian Saxophonist Jan Garbarek will make a special guest appearance.
Watch a performance by Trilok Gurtu.
- "Gurtu is a master-magician of pulse and timing, who seemingly can make any object sound like a fine-wrought drum"
