"Ankna Arockiam, Edward Cohen, and Hardeep Deerhe call on their eclectic artistic influences to portray a collection of scenes. Through collaboration, cultures will merge, blending voice, piano, and tabla, with elements of improvisation and conversation. An innovative soundscape will be created live, as the musicians explore a woman’s journey through dusk. This is going to be a moment to remember." Amanda, Festival Director (St Andrews Voices Festival)

 

 

Naad-hara sees the coming together of five equally accomplished musicians and singers from India and Scotland. Boldly fusing together their rich traditions of folk music with cultural integrity and an adventurous musical streak, the quintet draws on the depths and individuality of the two cultures and combine them with new compositions and improvisation through song, tunes and soundscape.
