MANTRA

The early music choir Orlando Consort collaborates with virtuosos Jonathan Mayer (sitar), Shahid Khan (voice) and Kuljit Bhamra (tabla) to create exciting new works and arrangements which fuse early music and Indian classical music. The pieces on this CD reflect this melting pot of interaction. Although there are no precise documents of the music that was played and sung during this collaborative period, it has provided a wonderfully liberating excuse for the artists to fantasise and indulge their imaginations. It is also a chance to demonstrate that links between cultures need not exist solely at specific moments in history, but that they can also reach out across the centuries.

THE TEAK PROJECT

The Teak Project brings together three of Britain's finest young improvisers to make music that defies definition. This is not 'jazz' or 'Hindustani classical', at least not as you've known it. It is a unique piece of joinery: classic, seamless powered by solid and individual vocabularies.
